Any performance implications in switching from using local addresses for point-to-point connections to using NAT?

[Gerry O'Brien]

Hello,

   We are using OpenConnect as a replacement for VMware's 
UnifiedAccessGateway. We are really impressed with the DTLS performance 
for remote access to physical desktops using VMware Horizon 7.

   If we switched from the default deployment where there are individual 
point-to-point local address connections to using NAT where all client 
connections would appear to come from the server, would there be a 
performance degradation? The only reason we are considering using NAT is 
to solve routing issues in our wider organisation because of the use of 
local addresses in the point-to-point client server connections.

     Best regards,
         Gerry
