I believe a proxy works at Layer 7 and NATing works at Layer 2/3.

            Hello.
            Recently I send a question asking how NAT works. But now,
I'm
        confused.
            What is the difference between NAT and Proxy?
            If I set a Internet Connection Sharing in my LAN, this
machine
        sharing connection (gateway) is performing NAT or being a proxy?
            In time, thanks to everyone that send me suggestions.
            Thanks in advance.
