Feature Overview

Previous to this feature, route mapping was supported only with dynamic Network Address Translation (NAT) translation.

The NAT—Ability to Use Route Maps with Static Translations feature enables NAT multihoming capability with static address translations. Multihomed internal networks now can host common services such as the Internet and Domain Name System (DNS), which are accessed from different outside networks.


Note Network static support is not included in this feature.


Benefits

The ability to configure route map statements provides the option of using IP Security (IPSec) with NAT.

Translation decisions can be made based on the destination IP address when static translation entries are used.

Determining Platform Support Through Feature Navigator

Cisco IOS software is packaged in feature sets that support specific platforms. To get updated information regarding platform support for this feature, access Feature Navigator. Feature Navigator dynamically updates the list of supported platforms as new platform support is added for the feature.

Feature Navigator is a web-based tool that enables you to quickly determine which Cisco IOS software images support a specific set of features and which features are supported in a specific Cisco IOS image.

To access Feature Navigator, you must have an account on Cisco.com. If you have forgotten or lost your account information, send a blank e-mail to cco-locksmith@cisco.com. An automatic check will verify that your e-mail address is registered with Cisco.com. If the check is successful, account details with a new random password will be e-mailed to you. Qualified users can establish an account on Cisco.com by following the directions at http://www.cisco.com/register.

Feature Navigator is updated when major Cisco IOS software releases and technology releases occur. As of May 2001, Feature Navigator supports M, T, E, S, and ST releases. You can access Feature Navigator at the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/go/fn

Verifying Static NAT Route Mapping

To verify the static NAT route mapping configuration, use the following command in privileged EXEC mode:

Command
Purpose

Router# show ip nat translations [verbose]

Displays active NAT translations.

Command Reference

This section documents the modified ip nat inside source command. All other commands used with this feature are documented in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2 command reference publications.

ip nat inside source

To enable Network Address Translation (NAT) of the inside source address, use the ip nat inside source command in global configuration mode. To remove the static translation or remove the dynamic association to a pool, use the no form of this command.

ip nat inside source {list {access-list-number | access-list-name} pool pool-name [overload] | static local-ip global-ip route-map map-name}

no ip nat inside source {list {access-list-number | access-list-name} pool pool-name [overload] | static local-ip global-ip route-map map-name}

Syntax Description

list access-list-number

Standard IP access list number. Packets with source addresses that pass the access list are dynamically translated using global addresses from the named pool.

list access-list-name

Name of a standard IP access list. Packets with source addresses that pass the access list are dynamically translated using global addresses from the named pool.

pool pool-name

Name of the pool from which global IP addresses are allocated dynamically.

overload

(Optional) Enables the router to use one global address for many local addresses. When overloading is configured, the TCP or UDP port number of each inside host distinguishes between the multiple conversations using the same local IP address.

static local-ip

Sets up a single static translation. The local-ip argument establishes the local IP address assigned to a host on the inside network. The address could be randomly chosen, allocated from RFC 1918, or obsolete.

global-ip

Sets up a single static translation. The global-ip argument establishes the globally unique IP address of an inside host as it appears to the outside world.

route-map map-name

Name of the route map configuration on the NAT inside interface in static translations.


Defaults

No default behavior or values

Command History

Release
Modification

11.2

This command was introduced.

12.2(4)T

This command was modified to include the ability to use route maps with static translations, and the route-map map-name keyword/argument was added.


Usage Guidelines

This command has two forms: dynamic and static address translation. The form with an access list establishes dynamic translation. Packets from addresses that match the standard access list are translated using global addresses allocated from the pool named with the ip nat pool command.

Alternatively, the syntax form with the keyword static establishes a single static translation.

Examples

The following example translates between inside hosts addressed from either the 192.168.1.0 or 192.168.2.0 network to the globally unique 171.69.233.208/28 network:

ip nat pool net-208 171.69.233.208 171.69.233.223 prefix-length 28
ip nat inside source list 1 pool net-208
!
interface ethernet 0
 ip address 171.69.232.182 255.255.255.240
 ip nat outside
!
interface ethernet 1
 ip address 192.168.1.94 255.255.255.0
 ip nat inside
!
access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255
access-list 1 permit 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.255

The following example shows the use of route mapping with static NAT translations:

interface Ethernet3
 ip address 172.68.1.100 255.255.255.0
 ip nat outside
 media-type 10BaseT
