The correct answer is: B. Static NAT allow incoming and outgoing connections. Hide NAT only allows outgoing connections. Static NAT: This type of NAT provides a one-to-one mapping between a private IP address and a public IP address. It allows both incoming and outgoing connections. This means that external devices can initiate connections to the internal device using the public IP address, and the internal device can also initiate connections to external devices. Hide NAT: This type of NAT, also known as PAT (Port Address Translation), allows multiple internal devices to share a single public IP address for outgoing connections. It only allows outgoing connections from the internal network to the external network. Incoming connections are not allowed because the public IP address is shared among multiple internal devices, making it impossible to determine which internal device should receive the incoming connection.

Correct is B Hide NAT is a solution that only allows outgoing connections. Static NAT allows both incoming and outgoing connections. Taken from the CCSA R81.10 guide page 465

Should be correct, Hide NAT only translates the source address to hide it behind a gateway.
