You can re-use address spaces locally by enabling static network address translation (NAT) for a subnet. NAT is static. This means that inbound connections — from Magic WAN to the site behind the Connector — are allowed, and connections do not have to be initiated by hosts behind the Connector. NAT is also 1:1, that is, the Connector will translate between corresponding addresses in two equal-sized prefixes. + +To enable NAT, supply a WAN-facing address prefix the same size as the subnet's prefix, and the Magic WAN Connector will translate between the two.
