Chapter 20 IPSec VPN
•Source address in outbound packets - this translation is necessary if you want the ZyWALL to route packets from computers outside the local network through the IPSec SA.
•Source address in inbound packets - this translation hides the source address of computers in the remote network.
•Destination address in inbound packets - this translation is used if you want to forward packets (for example, mail) from the remote network to a specific computer (like the mail server) in the local network.
Each kind of translation is explained below. The following example is used to help explain each one.
Figure 197 VPN Example: NAT for Inbound and Outbound Traffic
20.1.2.2.1Source Address in Outbound Packets (Outbound Traffic, Source NAT)
This translation lets the ZyWALL route packets from computers that are not part of the specified local network (local policy) through the IPSec SA. For example, in Figure 197 on page 295, you have to configure this kind of translation if you want computer M to establish a connection with any computer in the remote network (B). If you do not configure it, the remote IPSec router may not route messages for computer M through the IPSec SA because computer M’s IP address is not part of its local policy.
To set up this NAT, you have to specify the following information:
•Source - the original source address; most likely, computer M’s network.
•Destination - the original destination address; the remote network (B).
•SNAT - the translated source address; the local network (A).
20.1.2.2.2Source Address in Inbound Packets (Inbound Traffic, Source NAT)
You can set up this translation if you want to change the source address of computers in the remote network. To set up this NAT, you have to specify the following information:
•Source - the original source address; the remote network (B).
