Using bridge NAT, a tunneled VLAN (extended VLAN) is created between the NoC and a remote location. When a remote client needs to access the Internet, Internet traffic is routed to the NoC, and from there routed to the Internet. This increases the access time for the end user on the client.
To add or edit a bridge NAT configuration that can be applied to a profile:
Select Add to create a new Bridge VLAN configuration, Edit to modify an existing configuration or Delete to remove a configuration.
Select the ACL whose IP rules are applied to this policy based forwarding rule. A new ACL can be defined by selecting the Create icon, or an existing set of IP ACL rules can be modified by selecting the Edit icon.
Use the IP Address Range table to configure IP addresses and address ranges used to access the Internet.
