[j-nsp] SRX Static NAT - Not working in both directions

[Patrick Dickey]

I'm a little confused here. Where does the 192.168.17.16 network reside?

The static NAT will only NAT the 192.168.35.200 IP when its initiating
traffic to the FROM zone in the static NAT configuration, not just
generally. 
What does a flow from the 192.168.32.x/24 network look like when trying to
get to the 192.168.35.200 (or 192.168.32.5). How about in the reverse?

Brent, Patrick,

Thanks for the replies.

When I change the rule-set to apply to traffic from the user zone, I'm
seeing the same behavior.  The source address on traffic from the desktop
(192.168.35.200) out to the rest of the network isn't being NAT'ed.  I also
can't initiate connections to 192.168.32.5 from the rest of my network.

I've also tried putting both the user and trust zones in the rule-set.
 In that scenario, I can connect to 192.168.32.5 from outside, but the
outgoing traffic from 192.168.35.200 still isn't NAT'ed.

Thanks,

Oliver
