Command Sets for Command Line Interface

The nat inbound add command allows packets arriving on a specific port and IP protocol to be forwarded to a machine on the private network. <i/f> is an interface name as shown by the nat interface list command; <port> is the destination UDP or TCP port number to match in the incoming traffic; <proto> is the IP protocol, either “udp” or “tcp”; <new IP> is the new IP address on the private network which the packet’s destination IP address should be translated to. If a rule is added for an interface on which NAT is not enabled, the rule is added anyway but a warning is printed to alert the user to this fact. quiet is a special option which should not normally be issued at the console, and causes this warning to be suppressed. The quiet option is automatically added by NAT to when writing its configuration to flash; this is because when a system boots, the NAT process reads in these rules before IP has registered any interfaces

nat inbound list shows the current rules for inbound traffic, including all the arguments passed to the nat inbound add command.

nat inbound delete removes a rule, where <#> is the rule number as shown by the nat inbound list command.

nat inbound flush removes all the rules.

Example:

>nat inbound add ppp_device 80/TCP 192.168.219.38

>nat inbound list

#Interface Port/Proto New IP address

1 ppp_device 80/tcp 192.168.219.38

2 r1483 21/tcp 192.168.219.40 > nat inbound delete 2

4.nat info

Syntax:

nat info

Description:

This command displays the values of various parameters, which are defined in the module file, for example the session table size and the session timeouts. NAT’s current memory usage is also displayed.

Example:

>nat info

Interface table size 1 (116 bytes)

Session table size per interface: 128 (6656 bytes)

Total: 6656 bytes

Heritage specifications

IBM, or International Business Machines Corporation, is a global leader in technology and consulting, with a heritage that spans over a century. Established in 1911, IBM initially emerged from a merger of four companies, and it has since evolved into one of the most influential players in the tech industry.

One of the main features of IBM’s legacy is its commitment to innovation. The company has a long history of technological breakthroughs, including the development of the first programmable computer, the IBM 701, in the early 1950s. IBM has also been at the forefront of many pivotal technologies, including mainframe computers, which became central to large-scale enterprise computing. The System/360, introduced in 1964, revolutionized the industry by offering a compatible range of computers that could run the same software, a concept that helped define the standardization of computer systems.

IBM’s contributions to artificial intelligence, particularly through its Watson platform, are another hallmark of its heritage. Watson gained international fame for its success on the quiz show Jeopardy! in 2011, showcasing advanced natural language processing capabilities and machine learning techniques. This technology has since found applications in various fields, from healthcare to finance, significantly transforming data analysis.

Another key characteristic of IBM is its focus on research and development. With an impressive portfolio of patents, IBM consistently ranks among the top patent holders annually. Their research endeavors have led to significant advancements in quantum computing, with initiatives like the IBM Quantum Experience making quantum technologies accessible to developers and researchers.

Sustainability is also a priority for IBM, with programs aimed at promoting environmental responsibility. The company has committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, reflecting the growing importance of sustainability in technology practices.

In summary, IBM's heritage is characterized by a strong legacy of innovation, technological leadership, and a commitment to addressing contemporary challenges in business and society. From pioneering mainframe systems to leading the charge in AI and quantum computing, IBM continues to shape the future of technology while maintaining a visionary outlook towards a sustainable and inclusive digital world.
