Hello Carl,

I think Bill has already answered your question :-

Bill wrote:

"
Basically, you turn on nat on the interface you wish use NAT on (this
must be a PPP interface, and you can only have it on one interface at a
time), e.g.

nat inet on
where "inet" is the interface, usually the interface to the internet.
"

The only other thing to do is to set the external address to 0.0.0.0

interface>address 0.0.0.0 inet        (where <inet> is your dialout i/f)

I was involved in the V3.4 LS beta programme with ITK-Intl which happened 
before the current organisational changes were put in motion.  I suggest 
you work with ITK-Intl (Boston), through your German distributor, to 
obtain a set of the three ROMs for the LS (the flash in the LS is just 
for patches and config storage).

You will also see a marked performance increase when you are running 
multilink PPP over ISDN with a very heavy traffic and you have the 
additional 4 Meg LS RAM simm installed.  V3.4 has a new memory management 
chunk of code that makes a huge difference when you use the expanded 
memory.


Best regards .... / Mark.

I just spoke with the german distributor, when I asked him if he can
deliver an upgrade to 3.4, all I got was a very puzzled "Huh?!" Is 3.4 
for the LS currently shipping, and if it's a beta, can you let me know 
where I can get it?
