b. Suppose that you are hired by a local company to set up a router that both serves as the network's bidirectional firewall and also NATS hosts in the corporate network. The corporate network consists of about 100,000 machines that simultaneously access the Internet using port-based NAT. What problem could arise if the corporate network only has a single public IP address?
