Static Interface NAT with Port Translation

You can configure static NAT to map a real address to an interface address/port combination. For
example, if you want to redirect Telnet access for the ASA outside interface to an inside host, then you
can map the inside host IP address/port 23 to the ASA interface address/port 23. (Note that although
Telnet to the ASA is not allowed to the lowest security interface, static NAT with interface port
translation redirects the Telnet session instead of denying it).
Information About One-to-Many Static NAT
Typically, you configure static NAT with a one-to-one mapping. However, in some cases, you might want
to configure a single real address to several mapped addresses (one-to-many). When you configure
one-to-many static NAT, when the real host initiates traffic, it always uses the first mapped address.
However, for traffic initiated to the host, you can initiate traffic to any of the mapped addresses, and they
will be untranslated to the single real address.
Figure 3-4 shows a typical one-to-many static NAT scenario. Because initiation by the real host always
uses the first mapped address, the translation of real host IP/1st mapped IP is technically the only
bidirectional translation.
