-Source NAT is the most common form of NAT and is typically referred to simply
-as NAT. To be more correct, what most people refer to as NAT is actually the
-process of :abbr:`PAT (Port Address Translation)`, or NAT Overload. SNAT is
-typically used by internal users/private hosts to access the Internet - the
