Network Address Translation Rules
The Network Address Translation Rules window lets you view NAT rules, view
address pools, and set translation timeouts. From this window you ca n also
designate interfaces as inside or outside interfaces.
For more information on NAT, follow the link More About NAT.
Designate NAT Interfaces
Click to designate interfaces as inside or outside. NAT uses the inside/outside
designations as reference points when interpreting translation rules. Inside
interfaces are those interfaces connected to the private networks that the router
serves. Outside interfaces connect to the WAN or to the Internet. The designated
inside and outside interfaces are listed above the NAT rule list.
Address Pools
Click this button to configure or edit address pools. Address pools are used with
dynamic address translation. The router can dynamically assig n addresses from
the pool as they are needed. When an address is no longer needed, it is returned
to the pool.
