NAT (Network Address Translation) allows multiple devices to share a single IP address by assigning each device a unique private IP address and translating that address to the single public IP address provided by the ISP. This allows for communication with the internet while minimizing the number of publicly visible IP addresses needed. DNS translates domain names to IP addresses but does not allow for multiple devices to share a single address, and multiplexing is a technique for combining multiple data streams into a single transmission. Thus, the best choice is B-NAT.
