Dynamic NAT configurations translate the IP address of packets going out from one interface to another interface based on configured conditions. Dynamic NAT requires packets be switched through a NAT router to generate translations in the translation table.
To override the dynamic NAT configurations:
The Dynamic NAT main screen displays by default.
Source List ACL |
Lists an ACL to define the packet selection criteria for the NAT configuration. NAT is applied only on packets which match a rule defined in the access-list. These addresses (once translated) are not exposed to the outside world when the translation address is used to interact with the remote destination. |
Network |
Displays Inside or Outside NAT as the network direction for the dynamic NAT configuration. |
ACL Precedence |
Lists the administrator-assigned priority set for the listed source list ACL. The lower the value listed, the higher the priority assigned to this ACL rule. |
Interface |
Lists the VLAN (from 1 - 4094) used as the communication medium between the source and destination points within the NAT configuration. |
Overload Type |
Displays the overload type used when several internal addresses are NATed to only one or a few external addresses. Options include NAT Pool, One Global Address and Interface IP Address. The default setting is Interface IP Address. |
NAT Pool |
Displays the name of an existing NAT pool used with the dynamic NAT configuration. |
Overload IP |
If One Global IP Address is selected as the Overload Type, define an IP address to use as a filter address for the IP ACL rule. |
The Source window displays.
Source List ACL |
Select an ACL name to define the packet selection criteria for NAT. NAT is applied only on packets which match a rule defined in the access-list. These addresses (once translated) will not be exposed to the outside world when the translation address is used to interact with the remote destination. |
Network |
Select Inside or Outside NAT as the network direction for the dynamic NAT configuration. Inside is the default setting. |
ACL Precedence |
Set the priority (from 1 - 5000) for the source list ACL. The lower the value, the higher the priority assigned to the ACL rule. |
Interface |
Select the VLAN (from 1 - 4094) or WWAN used as the communication medium between the source and destination points within the NAT configuration. Ensure that the VLAN selected adequately supports the intended network traffic within the NAT supported configuration. |
Overload Type |
Define the overload type used when several internal addresses are NATed to only one or a few external addresses. Options include NAT Pool, One Global Address, and Interface IP Address. The default setting is Interface IP Address. |
NAT Pool |
Provide the name of an existing NAT pool for use with the dynamic NAT configuration. Note:
This option is enabled only if the Overload Type is set or NAT Pool. |
Overload IP |
If One Global IP Address is selected as the Overload Type, define an IP address to use as a filter address for the IP ACL rule. |
