Defining static NAT translations
Static NAT creates a permanent, one-to-one mapping between an address on an internal network
and a perimeter or external network. To share a Web server on a perimeter interface with the
Internet, use static address translation to map the actual address to a registered IP address. Static
address translation hides the actual address of the server from users on insecure interfaces.
Casual access by unauthorized users becomes much more difficult. Static NAT requires a
dedicated address on the outside network for each host.
Refer to the NAT screen’s Static Translation tab to view existing static NAT configurations available
to switch.
To view and add/edit a dynamic NAT configuration:
1. Select Security > NAT from the main menu tree.
2. Click the Static Translation tab.
