This set of checkpoint firewall is protecting a particular set of web servers and these web servers don't have route to internet and their default points to some other backend servers. So instead of adding routes on these web servers we want to use hide nat for inbound connections. This way we add only one route on the web servers. We hide nat all outbound connections as well.
