Carrier-grade NAT: Art, Disadvantages & Shared address space

Carrier-grade NAT (CGN or CGNAT) (also known as large-scale NAT, LSN) is a type of network address translation (NAT) used by Internet service providers (ISPs) in IPv4 network design. With CGN, end sites, in particular residential networks, are configured with private network addresses that are translated to public IPv4 addresses by middlebox network…
