Configuring Static Source NAT44 or NAT66 for Next Gen Services

date_range 06-Dec-23

Configuring the Source Pool for Static Source NAT44 or NAT66

To configure the source pool for static source NAT44 or NAT66:

  1. Create a source pool.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    user@host# edit services nat source pool nat-pool-name
    
  2. Define the addresses or subnets to which source addresses are translated.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    [edit services nat source pool nat-pool-name]
    user@host# set address address-prefix
    

    or

    content_copy zoom_out_map
    [edit services nat source pool nat-pool-name]
    user@host# set address address-prefix to address address-prefix
    
  3. Configure a one-to-one static shifting of a range of original source addresses to the range of addresses in the source pool by specifying the base address of the original source address range.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    [edit services nat source pool nat-pool-name]
    user@host# set host-address-base ip-address
    

    For example, if the host address base is 198.51.100.30 and the NAT pool uses the range 203.0.113.10 to 203.0.113.20, then 198.51.100.30 translates to 203.0.113.10, 198.51.100.31 translates to 203.0.113.11, and so on.

  4. To allow the IP addresses of a NAT source pool to overlap with IP addresses in pools used in other service sets, configure allow-overlapping-pools.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    [edit services nat]
    user@host# set allow-overlapping-pools
    

Configuring the NAT Rule for Static Source NAT44 or NAT66

To configure the NAT source rule for static source NAT44 or NAT66 :

  1. Configure the NAT rule name.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services nat source]
    user@host# set rule-set rule-set-name rule rule-name
    
  2. Specify the traffic direction to which the NAT rule set applies.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services nat source rule-set rule-set-name]
    user@host# set match-direction (in | out | in-out)
    
  3. Specify the addresses that are translated by the source NAT rule.

    To specify one address or prefix value:

    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services nat source rule-set rule-set-name rule rule-name]
    user@host# set match source-address address
    

    To specify a range of addresses, configure an address book global address with the desired address range, and assign the global address to the NAT rule:

    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services address-book global]
    user@host# set address address-name range-address lower-limit to upper-limit
     [edit services nat source rule-set rule-set-name rule rule-name]
    user@host# set match source-address-name address-name
    

    To specify any unicast address:

    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services nat source rule-set rule-set-name rule rule-name]
    user@host# set match source-address any-unicast
    
  4. Specify one or more application protocols to which the NAT rule applies. The number of applications listed in the rule must not exceed 3072.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services nat source rule-set rule-set-name rule rule-name]
    user@host# set match application [application-name]
    
  5. Specify the NAT pool that contains the addresses for translated traffic.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services nat source rule-set rule-set-name rule rule-name]
    user@host# set then source-nat pool nat-pool-name
    
  6. Configure the address-pooling paired feature if you want to ensure assignment of the same external IP address for all sessions originating from the same internal host.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services nat source rule-set rule-set-name rule rule-name then source-nat mapping-type]
    user@host# set address-pooling-paired
    
  7. Specify the timeout period for address-pooling-paired mappings that use the NAT pool. The range is 120 through 86,400 seconds, and the default is 300. Mappings that are inactive for this amount of time are dropped.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    [edit services nat source pool nat-pool-name]
    user@host# set mapping-timeout mapping-timeout
    

    If you do not configure ei-mapping-timeout for endpoint independent translations, then the mapping-timeout value is used for endpoint independent translations.

  8. Configure the generation of a syslog when traffic matches the NAT rule conditions.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services nat source rule-set rule-set-name rule rule-name then]
    user@host# set syslog
    

Configuring the Service Set for Static Source NAT44 or NAT66

To configure the service set for static source NAT44 or NAT66:

  1. Define the service set.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services]
    user@host# edit service-set service-set-name
    
  2. Configure either an interface service, which requires a single service interface, or a next-hop service, which requires an inside and outside service interface.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services service-set service-set-name]
    user@host# set interface-service service-interface interface-name
    

    or

    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services service-set service-set-name]
    user@host# set next-hop-service inside-service-interface interface-name outside-service-interface interface-name
    
  3. Specify the NAT rule sets to be used with the service set.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
     [edit services service-set service-set-name]
    user@host# set nat-rule-sets rule-set-name
