Confirmed with engineering teams, SRR60 and SXR80 already support nat loopback.

BretD this NAT Loopback feature should be easy to enable on a decent NAT router. Odd that it has never existed on Orbi or Ori Pro (as per the NTGR KB at least).

I would say describing the problem, scenario and topology clearly with feature requests. So, PLM can understand and evaluate business value before adding the feature.

  Small change is required: "...is a feature in many ~~consumer~~ NAT routers..."
