10.1.1.3

There are two methods to configure Port Address Translation (PAT) on the Foundry gateway. In the first method, specify the IP address to the nat-ipparameter in the policy command. In the second method, create a pool of type PAT and then attach it to the policy.

In PAT, multiple hosts can share the same IP address.

The PAT configuration shown in Figure 15.8 includes:

•Private network address: 10.1.1.1—10.1.1.3

•PAT address: 50.1.1.5

Method:1 – Specifying NAT address with the policy command

To configure this method of PAT, add the policy with the source IP address range, then specify the nat-ipaddress in the policy command:

Foundry/configure# firewall corp

Foundry/configure/firewall corp# policy 2 out address 10.1.1.1

10.1.1.3any any nat-ip 50.1.1.5 Foundry/configure/firewall corp/policy 2 out# exit 2 Foundry/configure#

Method:2 – Attaching nat pool to the policy

To configure the second type of NAT, create a NAT pool with type pat and specify the IP address. Then add the policy with the source IP address range. Finally, attach the NAT pool to the policy.
