Hi, NAT has always confused me and probably will always do. So please have some patience with me :) Question. Say you have a very common network topology: Internal, DMZ, External (Internet). You use an automatic HideNAT rule to hide your internal network behind the external gateway IP address. This will create two rules, one saying that internal talking to internal will not be natted while internal to any will be natted. Does that mean my traffic to the DMZ is also natted? (because the automatic rule created source:internal, destination:any ->NAT(H))?
If that's true, automatic NAT means a lot of work eventually because you have to explicitly turn off natting between the segments that you don't want natted. Does that make any sense? :) What is everyone using here? Manual or automatic NAT?
