[j-nsp] ns-50 NAT problem

Hi there,

>From past experience, we've found it impossible to get the Netscreen to
do this.  It can't use anything other than a MIP or the egress interface
of the box.  I think is is an architectural thing - NAT is configured
around an interface in ScreenOS.

In this respect it differs from a PIX, where translations don't need to
be tied to the interface in any way - they're simply specified in the
"ip nat ..." statements.

Sorry to disappoint...

Andrew

I am having problems configuring a nat on a netscreen 50. Basically I
have two interfaces facing the web with two different types of links and
an internal interface facing the office. What I would like to do is have
the NAT use a loopback IP on the netscreen as the translation IP...but
for some reason this doesn't work. The only way I have been able to make
it work is by binding the NAT IP to one of the external interfaces...but
this is not what I want since I would like my configuration to be
redundant so that if one of my external interface fails...I'm still
online.
