What is the primary function of Network Address Translation (NAT) in a networking environment?
Assigning IP addresses to devices on a network
Translating private IP addresses to a public IP address for internet access
Encrypting internet traffic to protect data confidentiality
Redirecting data packets to prevent network loops
NAT mainly translates the private IP addresses of devices in a local network to a public IP address before they communicate over the internet. This process helps conserve the number of IP addresses used and provides an additional layer of security by hiding internal IP addresses. The other options listed are functions related to other networking tasks not directly served by NAT operations.
