Question : Endian Firewall Port forwarding NAT Question?

I am setting up an Endian Firewall 4i Office for the first time and when I am setting up my rules with Firewall Port Forwarding NAT right under the destination address I have the option to NAT or Don't NAT, Why would I not NAT when I am setting up a Port Forwading NAT?

Answer : Endian Firewall Port forwarding NAT Question?

In general terms of NAT and NO NAT, you might come across a scenerio where, when a traffic is leaving an interface,  which, say is, HIDE NAT-ed, you would want the packtes to be not NAT-ed.

Suppose, traffic is goin from ur internal network to ouside network (interface), and if u have a branch connection terminated in ur router, above the firewal. Now if u have the external interface of the firewall in HIDE NAT scenario, u can mention that all traffic going to this particular branch office should not be NAT.

This is a general statement and might not be specific to  Endian Firewall 4i
