The definitions are very convoluted and I THINK I have a decent grasp on what these all mean, can someone verify that my understanding is correct? Or if i'm totally off pleaseeee let me know lol
Inside global: The PUBLIC IP address as seen by other networks (if you're the host that is translating to a destination network - it would be the IP associated with your networks router?)
Inside local: The PRIVATE IP ADDRESS as seen by others on the network you're translating from (it's your PRIVATE IP address, but to other networks it is a public IP?)
Outside local: The PUBLIC IP address as seen by the network that is translating to this one (this is a HOST IP address?, meaning the opposite of inside local - a private IP to that host but it is PUBLIC to other networks)
Outside global: The PUBLIC IP address of the network you're translating to (This is the destination networks router?)
So in summary?
Inside global - Public IP - the router of the source network
Inside local - Private IP - the host that is sending the packet
Outside local - Public IP - the host that is receiving the packet
Outside global - Public IP - the router of the destination network
Sorry if this is a mess of a post. I'm trying to get this concept down before I sit for CCNA
