I am after a LSN/CGN/NAT444 solution to put about 1000 Residential profile NBN speeds (fastest 100/40) services behind.
This solution is for v4 only, and needs to consider the profile of the typical residential users. Any pitfalls would be helpful to know - as in what will and and more importantly wont work - or any work-arounds which may work.
Pitfall 1: Make sure you have enough support desk to handle calls from everybody who's doing something that doesn't play nice with CGN/NAT444. And remember that unless "screw you, find another provider" is an acceptable response to a customer, those calls are going to be major resource sinks to resolve to the customer's satisfaction... Pitfall 2: These sort of short-term solutions often end up still in use well after their sell-by date. If you're planning to deploy a new solution in 6 months, maybe throwing resources at a short-term fix is counterproductive and the resources should go towards making the current solution hold together and deploying the long-term solution...
