Hi Tom,

Actually, the term "Network Address Table" was *very* briefly considered
and dropped for obvious reasons.
I still like "LAT" because the term "local" is even more meaningful now
- as in: "Local to only that network".

..but you're right; there are those for whom change is only confusing...
;-)

Hey Jim,

I just thought of something. Since ISA 2004 isn't LAT based, and there
isn't a global LAT, they really should call it the LNT -- "Local Network
Table". That would remove the ISA Server 2000/Proxy 1.0/2.0 ties that
bind regarding the limitations enforced by a LAT.

Whatcha think?
