Routed vs NATted network
Hi,
I have a customer with a Linux router/firewall connecting his public internet IP with an internal 192.168.x.x network. Server is just forwarding packets, no masquerading is being used (clients can browse internet through proxy squid).
I know masquerading is the right way to go here, but I need to justify the decision to the client. I think that a routed network is a big security flaw because it doesn't hide information of the LAN, but I haven't been able to prove it accessing the internet servers from the outside.
Can you please shed some light?
