Abstract
Techniques are described for performing subscriber-aware NAT functions. In one example, routers or other NAT-enabled devices deployed within a network are configured to auto-correlate subscriber information with NAT operations performed by the devices when forwarding network traffic. As such, the techniques offload the burden of correlating subscriber login activity with NAT operations as typically performed by offline NAT log archive systems.
