Overview
NAT444 translates an IPv4 address to another IPv4 address to a third IPv4 address. Compared to
transition technologies like DS-Lite, NAT64, 6RD, and dual stack, it costs less on the accessing devices
and services by only doubling the NAT at the carrier grade.
Features

NAT444 applies to the scenario where multiple users use a public address for accessing services and
solves the user tracing problem by assigning port blocks.
As shown in Figure 34, af

public address but different port numbers for accessing Internet services.
