PAT Address | 128.118.202.254

PAT = Port Address Translation. This is similar to how SNAT works with iptables. A single public ip. This is preferred to just straight NAT, which on the ASA is one-to-one with a set translation expiration time. After the global IP range is used up, further outbound connections are dropped. A single PAT address supports up to 65,536 outbound connections (TCP sessions).

NAT config on ASA:

global (Outside) 1 128.118.202.254
nat (Bioinformatics) 1 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0
nat (Bioinformatics) 1 192.168.4.0 255.255.255.0
nat (Bioinformatics) 1 10.1.0.0 255.255.0.0

Dynamically assigned with DHCP. 802.1x EAP-TTLS-PAP username/password login.

VLAN 130 | GUEST | ?

• VLAN: 130 (GUEST)
• DNS: guest-128-118-202-N.bx.psu.edu

DHCP entries static in LDAP. Web authorization form to allow changing of the MAC address, restricted to PIs and other persons of repute. These entries will be periodically expired. Or, tie into EDUROAM somehow?
