Cisco 678, ADSL and Dynamic IP

[pmele]

I recently installed ADSL in my home with Alltel as the ISP. While most ports are blocked I am able to get an FTP Server running to the outside world thru NAT.

The problem I am having is when the global ip address changes, the configuration for the router is no longer valid. In the router I set a NAT entry as follows:

set nat entry add 192.168.0.1 20 162.xxx.xxx.40 20 tcp

The question - How do you tell the router and NAT to let "any" global ip address through to the internal address without having to check and reset the entry every time the ISP changes my ip address?

set nat entry add 192.168.0.1 20 {any_ip} 20 tcp

i have to do the same thing for battlecom

set nat entry add (ip of computer) 0.0.0.0 ## @@@

0.0.0.0 reads it as "whatever the ip to the outside happens to be"

## is the port you want open

@@@ is tcp or udp...if you need both then use 2 seperate entries

I cant beleive I can actually answer a question here...whoohoo!
