Select the Destination tab to view destination NAT configurations and define packets passing
through the NAT on the way back to the LAN are searched against to the records kept by the NAT
engine. The destination IP address is changed back to the specific internal private class IP address
to reach the LAN over the network.

Device Overrides - NAT Destination screen

Select Add to create a new NAT destination configuration. or Delete to permanently remove a NAT
destination. Existing NAT destination configurations are not editable.

Source Port

Use the spinner control to set the local port number used at the (internal) end of the static NAT
configuration. The default value is port 1.

NAT IP

Enter the IP address of the matching packet to the specified value. The IP address modified can be
either source or destination based on the direction specified.

NAT Port

Enter the port number of the matching packet to the specified value. This option is valid only if the
direction specified is destination.

Network

Select Inside or Outside NAT as the network direction. The default setting is Inside.
Select Inside to create a permanent, one-to-one mapping between an address on an internal
network and a perimeter or external network. To share a Web server on a perimeter interface with
the Internet, use static address translation to map the actual address to a registered IP address.
Static address translation hides the actual address of the server from users on insecure interfaces.
Casual access by unauthorized users becomes much more difficult. Static NAT requires a dedicated
address on the outside network for each host. Inside NAT is the default setting.
