Configuring static NAT

You need to configure static NAT in system view, and make it effective in interface view.
Static NAT supports two modes: one-to-one and net-to-net.At present, the device support one-to-one only.
Configuring one-to-one static NAT:
One-to-one static NAT translates a private IP address into a public IP address.
Follow these steps to configure one-to-one static NAT:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Configure a one-to-one static NAT
mapping

nat static [ acl-number ] local-ip
[ vpn-instance local-name ]
global-ip

Required

Enter interface view

interface interface-type
interface-number

Enable static NAT on the interface

nat outbound static [ track vrrp
virtual-router-id ]

Required
Support for track vrrp

virtual-router-id depends on the
device model.

Configuring dynamic NAT

Dynamic NAT is usually implemented by associating an ACL with an address pool (or the address of an

interface) on an interface.

To select the address of an interface as the translated address, use Easy IP.

To select an address from an address pool as the translated address, use No-PAT or NAPT for
dynamic address translation. No-PAT is used in many-to-many address translation but does not
translate TCP/UDP port numbers. NAPT allows for many-to-one address translation by translating

also TCP/UDP port numbers.

Typically, a NAT entry is configured on the outbound interface of the NAT device. If internal hosts need

to access external networks through multiple outbound interfaces on the NAT device, you must configure

NAT entries on each of the interfaces. To avoid this, the device supports configuring a NAT entry on the
inbound interface on the NAT device. When hosts in a VPN want to access other VPNs through multiple

outbound interfaces on a NAT device, you can configure a NAT entry on the inbound interface on the

NAT device, simplifying NAT configuration.
When a packet from an internal host to the external network arrives: If it is the first packet and an address
pool is associated with an outbound interface, NAT determines whether to translate the packet based on

the ACL. If yes, NAT chooses an address from the associated address pool or gets the associated

interface address, performs address translation, and then saves the address mapping in the address

translation table. All subsequent packets from the internal host are serviced by NAT directly according to
the mapping entry.

1.

Configuration prerequisites

Configure an ACL to specify IP addresses permitted to be translated.

Decide whether to use an interface’s IP address as the translated source address.

Determine a public IP address pool for address translation.

Decide whether to translate port information.
