The task that you can perform with this tab is:

“Configuring NAT pools” on page 362
Dynamic NAT Pool Properties—Description tab
Optionally, provides an extended description. This information is useful to help track changes or it can
be used as criteria for searches.
The maximum length is 20,000 alphanumeric characters.
Static NAT Pool Properties—General tab
The Static NAT Pool Properties dialog box lets you map a client IP address to a specific NAT pool
address. The address map is then assigned in advance of the connection and is always the same.
You can only use subnet entities with static one-to-one NAT addressing, but you can have subnets
which consist of only one entity, if necessary. The mapping must also be one-to-one. In other words,
you must have the same number of entities in your real subnet as you do in your NAT subnet.

the subnet broadcast address. For example, use 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.1.254 instead
of 192.168.1.0 through 192.168.1.255.

The same recommendations for starting IP addresses apply to ending IP addresses.
