Enabling Gateway DNAT Settings

In Aviatrix CoPilot:

  1. Go to Cloud Fabric > Gateways > Transit Gateways or Spoke Gateways tab.

  2. In the table, select the gateway for which you want to enable SNAT and DNAT.

  3. Click the gateway’s Settings tab.

  4. In the Settings tab, expand the Network Address Translation (NAT) section.

  5. Use the toggle switch to turn Destination NAT On.

  6. From the Instance dropdown menu, select either the primary or the high availability (HA) gateway to set up Source NAT for that gateway.

    NAT rules are not synchronized from the primary gateway to the HA gateway instances. You must configure NAT rules on the primary and HA gateway instances separately.
  7. To add a translation rule, click + Rule.

  8. Set up Destination NAT Rule.

    You can configure the following parameters to set up DNAT rules to meet your requirement.
