NAT provides a solution to, lets call it, enterprise multihoming. Remote office with a local Internet connection, but failover through the corporate network.
And for home (/homeworker) networks ... eg I have a NAT box with a default connection to my ADSL provider and an automatic failover to 3G (completely separate supplier). Almost everything inside my network doesn't notice when it switches over. Now, if only I could get it to automatically revert to ADSL when it reappears - I wouldn't have to worry so much about the 3G bill. -- Roland Perry Nottingham, UK
