A network administrator needs an internal server to be consistently accessible from external networks using the same public IP address. Which configuration should be implemented to achieve this?
Configuring a static mapping creates a permanent one-to-one association between an internal private IP address and a specific public IP address. This ensures that the internal server is always accessible from external networks using the same public IP address. Dynamic mapping with a pool assigns public IP addresses to internal hosts from a pool on a first-come, first-served basis, which doesn't guarantee the same public IP for each session. PAT allows multiple internal hosts to share a single public IP address by using different port numbers but does not provide a consistent public IP for a specific internal host. Dynamic mapping with overload is another term for PAT and also doesn't offer a fixed public IP address for an internal host.
