> NAT is not and has never been a security against sniffing or otherwise. Nat was a bandaid to extend the ipv4 address space, then people decided it was "safe" due to obscurity but I think that's just laziness and quite a number of people/companies have paid for it. Safaricom as far as I know gives each and every user a public ip securely. > > Sent from my iPad Well said. Its amazing how widespread people mistake NAT for security. I am sometimes curious where this myth originally came from. There must be a book somewhere that may be raised the issue. If you check why most people don't like ipv6, lack of NAT is apparently the biggest problem William > > On 5 Sep 2012, at 12:35, Job Muriuki <muriukin(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > > Natting is necessary for administrative reasons like said above sniffing.
