Additional question.

jgejerrit
Just out of curiosity, what is the big difference between NAT and masquerading, and which one should I use for a small (7 client) network?

    jgejerrit,

    simple answer masquerading translates n:1 using
    an internal port mapping table.

    With SNAT you can be much more specific - normally
    you'd use it to translate single internal host IPs
    into a public one (1:1) and in addition you could
    translate only packets with a certain destination
    or source port.
