The invention discloses a method for communication between intranet equipment and internet equipment and NAT (Network Address Transformation) equipment. The method comprises the steps of: classifying an interface connected with first intranet equipment and a public network interface of the NAT equipment per se into a same VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) by the NAT equipment, classifying an interface connected with second intranet equipment of the NAT equipment per se into the other VLAN by the NAT equipment, issuing a public network IP (Internet Protocol) address and a gateway address, distributed to the first intranet equipment, on a virtual interface enabled by the NAT equipment per se, and setting ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) information of the IP address to be a silent state; forwarding a received message sent by the first intranet equipment to the internet from a public network interface located in the same VLAN with an ingress interface of the message; forwarding a message, which is sent by the second intranet equipment to the internet and transformed by a network address port, from the public network interface; and forwarding a message sent by the internet equipment according to whether the message is matched with a NAT forwarding table. By applying the method and the NAT equipment, provided by the invention, one equipment in a local area network can interact with a public network rapidly by using the public network IP address, and other equipment in the local area network interact with the public network through NAT.
