10. Select OK to save the changes or overrides made to the profile’s NAT Pool configuration. Select Reset to revert to the last
saved configuration.
11. Select the Static NAT tab. The Source tab displays by default.
The Source tab displays existing static NAT configurations. Existing static NAT configurations are not editable, but new
configurations can be added or existing ones deleted as they become obsolete.
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.

To map a source IP address from an internal network to a NAT IP address click the Add button.
12. Define the following Source NAT parameters:
Source IP Enter the address used at the (internal) end of the static NAT configuration. This address
(once translated) will not be exposed to the outside world when the translation address is
used to interact with the remote destination.
NAT IP Enter the IP address of the matching packet to the specified value. The IP address modified
can be either
source or destination based on the direction specified.
