It processes the NAT rules from the 'top' down as well.  There are generally
only so many things which can go wrong with NAT.

-MAC addresses (proxy arp)
-rulebase kills the packet before it can be NAT'ed
-NAT rules are not configured correctly.  Sometimesone is missing or there
is a conflicting rule 'above' the one you are concerned with.
