Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Network Address Translation (NAT) is a process that enables one, unique IP address to represent an entire group of computers. In network address translation, a network device, often a router or NAT firewall, assigns a computer or computers inside a private network a public address.

Detailed explanation-2: -Static (map) network address translation (NAT) provides a one-to-one mapping of private IP addresses to public IP addresses. It allows you to map an IP address on your internal network to an IP address that you want to make public.

Detailed explanation-3: -NAT stands for network address translation. It’s a way to map multiple private addresses inside a local network to a public IP address before transferring the information onto the internet. Organizations that want multiple devices to employ a single IP address use NAT, as do most home routers.

Detailed explanation-4: –Static NAT maps a single private IP address to a single public IP address on the NAT router. Static NAT is used to take a server on the private network (such as a web server) and make it available on the internet.

Detailed explanation-5: -it’s how computers know where to send data from one point to another. NAT stands for Network Address Translation. In the context of our network, NAT is how one (public) IP address is turned into many (private) IP addresses. A public IP address is an address that is exposed to the Internet.
