Device Overrides - Add NAT Source screen

Define the following Source NAT parameters:

Protocol

Select the protocol for use with static translation. TCP, UDP and Any are the available options.
Transmission Control Protocol
(TCP) is a transport layer protocol used by applications requiring
guaranteed delivery. It’s a sliding window protocol handling both timeouts and retransmissions. TCP
establishes a full duplex virtual connection between two endpoints. Each endpoint is defined by an
IP address and a TCP port number. The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) offers only a minimal
transport service, non-guaranteed datagram delivery, and provides applications direct access to the
datagram service of the IP layer. UDP is used by applications not requiring the level of service of TCP
or are using communications services (multicast or broadcast delivery) not available from TCP. The
default setting is Any.

Source IP

Enter the address used at the (internal) end of the static NAT configuration. This address (once
translated) will not be exposed to the outside world when the translation address is used to interact
with the remote destination.
