I'm very new to nortel router configuration. Below is the current
configuration from the router. This allows the router to access the
internet and also enables the socks server, allowing the 192.168.1.X
to all access the internet just fine. I want to enable NAT. When I add
these lines...

ifconfig eth2 xlate out
ip forwarding on

I can access the internet but with huge lags and ping drops. Even if I
ping yahoo.com from the actual nortel device command line I get about a
5 sec response time. If I remove the lines above and just use config
below the system runs just fine without the abnormal ping times. What
am I doing wrong to create this wierd lag?

Current Config:
dns add server XXX.XXX.XXX.10
ifconfig eth1 ipaddress 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
ifconfig eth2 ipaddress XXX.XXX.XXX.146 255.255.255.128
route add default eth2 XXX.XXX.XXX.129
encapsulation aux terminal
dnsproxyd start
identd start
plserver eth1
plserver eth2
plserver eth3
snmpd start
socksd start
tcpserver
telnetd start
webproxy start
webserver start
winsockserver eth1
winsockserver eth1 802.3
winsockserver eth1 802.2
winsockserver eth2
winsockserver eth2 802.3
winsockserver eth2 802.2
winsockserver eth3
winsockserver eth3 802.3
winsockserver eth3 802.2

also tried adding this line instead of nating the eth2...

ifconfig eth1 xlate on

same exact problem

please disregard. The problem was an infected machine spaming the
network looking for hosts to infect.
