NAT Menu CONFIG =>SECURITY =>NAT
Menu Option Description
General Parameters for enabling NAT and choosing the NAT Mode. Also includes port

Global Address The first and last IP addresses in the range. In the example, these numbers are
200.240.230.225 and 200.240.230.238.
Local Address The local network IP address and network mask, and whether or not the network should
be translated. In the example, these numbers are 192.168.0.0 and 255.255.255.0.
Static Translation Defines a static translation between a global IP address/port pair and a local IP

Timeout Definition of inactivity timeouts for UDP, DNS, and TCP dynamic NAT translations.
STEP ONE
The first step in the configuration of NAT is to enable NAT and choose the NAT Mode (Normal or Expanded).
Only the expanded mode is discussed in this chapter. The normal mode is a previous version of NAT maintained
for backwards compatability. See chapter 4 of the CyROS Reference Guide for information about the Normal
Mode.
