Are you going to set up the port forwarding for 500,000 customers? 1 milli=

You and I can set things up so port 22 goes to one machine, port 23 to anot=

etc., but what are you going to do for 500,000 customers?
And what are you going to do for only 1,000 customers, with some of them wa=
nting
telnet, some VNC, some ssh, some Napster, some webcams, etc. etc. etc.?
Set up a dozen ports for each of 500,000 customers?
Or do you have some magic NAT that automatically figures out every protocol,
known or unknown, currently existing or yet to be written, and routes it to
the correct machine?
