NATsetup
An administrator can add and configure NATpolicies to perform address translations. Depending upon the routing within
the environment and the appliance, it may be important to perform the NATsetup as traffic arrives (pre-routing)or as the
traffic exits (post-routing).
PARAMETER DEFINITION
Direction Direction of traffic flowing into/out of the interface performing NAT.
Order From top to bottom, traffic is compared to the entries of the NATpolicy looking for a pattern match.
Interface This is the interface where traffic will be inspected for traffic pattern matching and also the interface where the NATwill be performed.
Source The source host/network listed here is inspected for traffic pattern matching.
Destination The destination host/network listed here is inspected for traffic pattern matching.
Service The service listed here is inspected for traffic pattern matching.
