Masquerade/NAT/DMZ
Rules
DMZ rules are used to configure rules to route through a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), Masquerade rules are used to
configure an interface to give all IP Addresses on a local network access to the Internet, while NAT(Network
Address Translation) rules provide access to the Internet through a single machine that translates the IP
addresses.
Masquerade Rules:
The MASQ rules enable access to the Internet through a single unit/interface that translates
the IP addresses. The unit itself has one or more IP addresses, but all the IP’s behind the MASQ have ‘private’
Internet addresses.
Click on the

Original Source Subnet (Required):

of a specific interface. All traffic that is sourced from this subnet and that is destined to go out the specified
interface will be masqueraded with the source IP address of the interface specified.
Interface:
Select the desired interface through which you wish to masquerade source addresses from the
drop-down menu.
