+# Network Address Translation (NAT) Configuration with Cisco Packet Tracer
+
+This repository contains projects and examples related to **Network Address Translation (NAT)** using **Cisco Packet Tracer**. NAT is essential for translating private IP addresses to public IP addresses and vice versa, enabling multiple devices on a local network to share a single public IP address.

+## Introduction
+
+**Network Address Translation (NAT)** allows a router or firewall to translate private IP addresses used within a local network to a public IP address for external communication. This project demonstrates how to configure NAT on Cisco routers, including:
+
+- **Static NAT**: Maps a specific internal IP address to a specific public IP address.
+- **Dynamic NAT**: Maps internal IP addresses to a pool of public IP addresses.
+- **PAT (Port Address Translation)**: Maps multiple internal IP addresses to a single public IP address with port differentiation.
+
+## Project Features
+
+- **Static NAT Configuration**: Examples showing one-to-one mapping between internal and public IP addresses.
+- **Dynamic NAT Configuration**: Demonstrations of how to configure NAT with a pool of public IP addresses.
+- **PAT Configuration**: Setting up PAT to allow multiple devices to share a single public IP address.
+- **Testing and Verification**: Tools to verify NAT operation, including ping and traceroute tests.
+
+## How to Use
+
+### Prerequisites
+- [Cisco Packet Tracer](https://www.netacad.com/courses/packet-tracer) installed on your system.
+- Basic understanding of NAT concepts and IP addressing.
+
+### Steps:
+1. Clone the repository:
+   ```bash
+   git clone https://github.com/your-username/nat-configuration-packet-tracer.git
