Comment (by anonymous):
I found on the internet datasheet of the QCA8337N switch chip which
support NAT offload. Good document for developing features like this
topic, but...
It can hold only 1024 entries in the translation table. It is not too much
and it supports only TCP,UDP,GRE protocols. It could overflow with a
simple torrent client, and then comes the real headache.
So as I see, HW NAT in branch market devices is good for speedtests and
similar but not for everyday production use.
