ZyWALL 10 Internet Security Gateway

6.1.4 NAT Mapping Types

NAT supports five types of IP/port mapping. They are:

1.One to One: In One-to-One mode, the ZyWALL maps one local IP address to one global IP address.

2.Many to One: In Many-to-One mode, the ZyWALL maps multiple local IP addresses to one global IP address. This is equivalent to SUA (i.e., PAT, port address translation), ZyXEL’s Single User Account feature that previous ZyXEL routers supported (the SUA Only option in today’s routers).

3.Many to Many Overload: In Many-to-Many Overload mode, the ZyWALL maps the multiple local IP addresses to shared global IP addresses.

4.Many to Many No Overload: In Many-to-Many No Overload mode, the ZyWALL maps the each local IP addresses to unique global IP addresses.

5.Server: This type allows you to specify inside servers of different services behind the NAT to be accessible to the outside world.

Port numbers do not change for One-to-One and Many-to-Many-No Overload NAT

mapping types.

The following table summarizes these types.
