Title:

Exactly - that's the static NAT option.  That's exactly what we're trying to get around in the question I posed.  The consensus seems to be that I'm NOT crazy (not on this particular topic, anyway :), and the only options are the options presented in my original post.  Thanks to many for responses and suggestions, which hopefully have made many people wiser (myself included).

Static Network Address Translation

Static NAT is usually only implemented between private networks (although other possibilities also exist). Suppose there are 2 networks each having the same address space.

In this way, the upper network addresses the bottom network using the addresses 10.3.yy.zz and the bottom metwork addresses the top network using the addresses 10.2.ww.xx
