Connecting to the Internet via the Edge Gateway

In order to connect to the Internet via the Edge Gateway, you will need to configure the SNAT settings.

By configuring the SNAT settings, you will be able to use the Edge Gateway like a broadband router.

This recipe explains the procedure for configuring the SNAT settings.

SNAT (Source NAT) is a function for converting the IP address and port number of the sender to the IP address distributed from the ISP when packets are sent from the private network side to the Internet.

Reference

DNAT (Destination) is a function for forwarding packets received from the Internet to a specific port number to a device on a private network set in advance.

   amnimo(cfg)#

3. Transit to configuration mode of Interface eth0, and run the following command.

   amnimo(cfg-interface-eth0)# dynamic-snat4
   amnimo(cfg-interface-eth0)#

4. Save the configuration mode.
   

   amnimo(cfg)# config file save
