Is this possible? (DHCP Forward/NAT Hybrid)

May 23, 2007 0 Replies

Here's the deal... I want to take my Cisco 831 and use it to sit between my little LAN and the nasty campus WAN, which is choked with broadcast traffic and whatnot - Easy solution is to let my router get and address and then do overloaded NAT to the inside, but I don't want to (read can't) go about it that way...



What I need is a way for the router to forward DHCP queries from the LAN to the WAN without requiring a separate DHCP pool on the campus server, and have the router set up a 1:1 NAT relationship so that I can still police the traffic in and out of my LAN...



I can't think seem to think of/find a way to do this... any ideas?
