Using Dynamic NAT
This section describes how to configure dynamic NAT, including dynamic NAT and PAT, dynamic policy
NAT and PAT, and identity NAT.
Policy NAT lets you identify real addresses for address translation by specifying the source and
destination addresses. You can also optionally specify the source and destination ports. Regular NAT can
only consider the source addresses, and not the destination. See the “Policy NAT” section on page6-11
for more information.
This section includes the following topics:
