System Administration Guide: IP Services

ProcedureHow to Append Rules to the NAT Rules

  1. Assume a role that includes the IP Filter Management rights profile, or become superuser.

    You can assign the IP Filter Management rights profile to a role that you create. To create the role and assign the role to a user, see Configuring RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services.

  2. Use one of the following methods to append rules to the active rule set:

    • Append rules to the NAT rule set at the command line using the ipnat -f - command.


      # echo "map dmfe0 192.168.1.0/24 -> 20.20.20.1/32" | ipnat -f -
      
    • Perform the following commands:

      1. Create additional NAT rules in a file of your choice.

      2. Add the rules you have created to the active NAT rules.


        # ipnat -f filename
        

        The rules in filename are added to the end of the NAT rules.
