Crestron NAT 2-Series Feature
Network Address Translator: NAT
Introduction
The purpose of this document is to describe Crestron’s implementation of the
Network Address Translator (NAT) with respect to a 2-Series Control system with
the optional Z-Bus card (C2ENET-2) installed.
Features/Functions of Crestron NAT
Crestron Network Address Translation (NAT) is a method of connecting multiple
Crestron IP devices and other IP enabled AV devices on an internal network (LAN)
to access the Internet (WAN) using one static IP address.
NOTE: The NAT throughput (from LAN B to LAN A) should not exceed 1Mbps
(megabits per second). Crestron does not recommend use of high-volume streaming
output devices such as IP-based codecs.
