Chapter 1 Configuring Network Object NAT
Configuration Examples for Network Object NAT
DNS Server and FTP Server on Mapped Interface, FTP Server is
Translated (Static NAT with DNS Modification)
Figure 1-6 shows an FTP server and DNS server on the outside. The ASA has a static translation for the
outside server. In this case, when an inside user requests the address for ftp.cisco.com from the DNS
server, the DNS server responds with the real address, 209.165.201.10. Because you want inside users
to use the mapped address for ftp.cisco.com (10.1.2.56) you need to configure DNS reply modification
for the static translation.
Figure 1-6 DNS Reply Modification Using Outside NAT
Step 1 Create a network object for the FTP server address:
hostname(config)# object network FTP_SERVER
Step 2 Define the FTP server address, and configure static NAT with DNS modification:
hostname(config-network-object)# host 209.165.201.10
hostname(config-network-object)# nat (outside,inside) static 10.1.2.56 dns
ftp.cisco.com
