Hello all, I'm looking to see if there is any ability to do deterministic port mapping aka Carrier Grade NAT in the Edgerouter platform. I have Edgerouters Deployed throughout my network, and I love the throughput due to HW offload that I get. However, for my core, I'm lacking the ability to map outgoing port numbers to a particular internal IP with NAT. Since I have private IP's for my customers, I need a way to process DMCA & FBI requests. This means I need to have a way to figure out what customers were doing what. The way this is commonly done, is to map outgoing port numbers to customers in an orginized fashion, so when you get a DMCA request, you can look at the originating port number and know exactly who is to blame.
I.E:
ports 2000-3000 = 10.0.0.10
ports 3001-4000 = 10.0.0.11
etc etc.
Mikrotik can do this, but their products don't have the throughput performance of Edgerouter. But, at this point, i will have to stick with them if EdgeOS can't do this.
Thanks for any input.
