Choice of terminology is pretty important; Cisco's consistent (if a bit
awkward) four-way terminology for NAT (inside local, inside global,
outside local, outside global; see
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/network-address-translation-nat/4606-8.html)
is pretty much the standard from a netadmin point of view. I'm thinking
he means that he wants the Windows box to have an inside local address
but no inside global address (meaning that in order to access the
Internet the host to be accessed would have to either be proxied or have
an outside local address (most consumer routers don't implement the
outside half of the cisco quartet, but some do)).
I have several machines here that have no inside global address and thus
don't have routability to the internet (they're in a deny line of the
NAT pool ACL).
