Re: cgnat - how do you handle customer issues

For number 2, I'm a fan of what mike suggests. I believe the technical term
is MAP-T.
For number 1, anyone who wants one, gets one. We provide free public static
IP to any customer who asks for one. Another solution, using above solution
is to ask them which ports they need, and forward those to them using a
port within their assign range. i.e. teach them how to access their home
web server using a different port(say 32424, or similar). This won't solve
all the issues, which is why we use solution 1.
