Answer

The router permanently deletes the source IP address from every packet.

Answer

As a result, the packet size increases infinitely, causing a system freeze.

Answer

However, switches convert the private IP into a MAC address automatically.

Answer

The gateway replaces the private source IP address with its public IP address and port number on outgoing packets.

Answer

Therefore, external web servers can directly access the internal private computers.
