Re: what is NAT Good For ...

of course if NAT is so cool, 
why not make _every_ hop do NAT (Naughty Awful Terrible stuff)
instead of MPLS (My Protocol's a Lot Slower....)
as a way of aggregate traffic engineering without recourse to 
level 2 (which we all know is making a lot less money than level 3
right now)

i mean they are both label swapping schemes right, so if mpls is so
cool, but NAT is the IP-holic approach, it ought to be fine, eh?

 cheers
