Disables IPv4 NAT on the interface.
on
Enables IPv4 NAT on the interface.
IPv4 Network Address Transnation is enabled on WAN interfaces and disabled on LAN interfaces by default.
When Network Address Translation (NAT) is enabled on an interface, the source IP address of transmitted packets is changed to the Island's IP address assigned to the interface. Depending on the protocol involved, the source port number, as well as address information embeded in the payload, may be modified as well.
Island maintains a list of active NAT translations so that received packets can be routed back to the proper internal client.
NAT is typically used to map private IP addresses on a LAN to a public IP address on the WAN.
This command is valid only in interface context. Entering it will set the to manual.
