The request to the server for the seventh user fails.
All users can access the server.
The first user gets disconnected when the seventh user makes the request.
13 A network engineer has configured a router with the command ip nat inside source list 4
pool corp overload. Why did the engineer use the overload option?
The company has more private IP addresses than available public IP addresses.
The company needs to have more public IP addresses available to be used on the Internet.
The company router must throttle or buffer traffic because the processing power of the router is not
enough to handle the normal load of external-bound Internet traffic.

numbers.
Port forwarding allows an internal user to reach a service on a public IPv4 address that is located
outside a LAN.
