IP ServicesDifficulty 2/5
Host 192.168.1.10 sits behind a router that translates it to 203.0.113.5 when reaching server 198.51.100.7. In NAT terminology, 203.0.113.5 is the:
- AInside global address
- BOutside local address
- COutside global address
- DInside local address
Show answer and rationale
Correct: A. 'Inside' refers to the host on the inside network; 'global' is how it appears on the outside. 192.168.1.10 is inside local, 203.0.113.5 is inside global, and 198.51.100.7 is outside global.
- D — Inside local is the private address before translation.
- B — Outside local is how the outside host appears inside (usually the same as outside global).
- C — Outside global is the server's real public address.
