Greetings,

We also have ran into the problem of PAT translation obscuring the
original internal IP addresses.

We are in the process of installing a Cisco MARS device, which we
believe will automatically keep track of PAT translations.

Has anyone else deployed MARS (formerly Protego Networks)?

We've had it installed a few months and are getting ready to
seriously start tuning it for production. It definitely shows
potential.
