Is NAT possible using a PC 7048

Question

Can I NAT to a site that lies across an MPLS link that only carries certain subnets?

Our MPLS currently carries 172.16 traffic which is routed by the PC 7048 (5.1.0.1 VxWorks 6.6)

We have added a couple of sites at one side of our MPLS and they are 192.168.x.x subnets. Instead of waiting to get the carrier network upgraded to carry 192.168, can I do it with NAT directly from the 7048?

Failing that, any other method? Tunneling? Anything?

Thanks

Thanks Daniel, Wonder if you know off the top of your head how this would work with BGP? Our MPLS provider advertises routes in BGP. I'm about 14 threads into various methods of QinQ and 802.1ad etc but nothing I can see specifically talks bout how it works over MPLS or with BGP, though a few do say that Dell tech support answered their questions with full config examples.

Thanks again

Just had word from our provider. Its an IPVPN L3 across the MPLS so I don't think its going to be feasible. Unless you know otherwise? Thanks
