Chapter 4 Configuring Network Object NAT (ASA 8.3 and Later)

Configuring Network Object NAT

Step 4 Check the Add Automatic Translation Rules check box.

Step 5 From the Type drop-down list, choose Static.

Step 6 In the Translated Addr. field, do one of the following:

•Type an IP address.

When you type an IP address, the netmask or range for the mapped network is the same as that of the real network. For example, if the real network is a host, then this address will be a host address. In the case of a range, then the mapped addresses include the same number of addresses as the real range. For example, if the real address is defined as a range from 10.1.1.1 through 10.1.1.6, and you specify 172.20.1.1 as the mapped address, then the mapped range will include 172.20.1.1 through 172.20.1.6.

•(For static NAT-with-port-translation only) Type an interface name or click the browse button, and choose an interface from the Browse Translated Addr dialog box.

To use the IPv6 interface address, you must also check the Use IPv6 for interface PAT checkbox. Be sure to also configure a service on the Advanced NAT Settings dialog box (see Step 8). (You cannot specify an interface in transparent mode).

•Click the browse button, and choose an existing address from the Browse Translated Addr dialog box.
