NAT on palo alto firewall

 I find switching from ASA to palo alto NAT confusing because they work in a different way and I've worked on ASA for so long.


nat rule (to nat traffic)

outside -> outside

Destination address is customer public IP: 100.200.200.114

Destination translations address is inside IP of the server: 192.168.0.1


policy rule (to allow traffic)

outside -> inside

Source IP is outside source public 8.8.8.8

inside destination IP is the public IP: 100.200.200.114



The main thing there is a public IP NAT is outside to outside on palo. On ASA its outside to inside for a public IP NAT.

  • Source zone: outside
  • Destination zone: outside
  • Destination interface: eth1/1 (outside)
  • Source add: any
  • Destination address: 100.100.100.50 (public IP of server)
  • Service: port 443
  • Source translation: "none"
  • Destination Translation:
    • destination-translation (translation type "static IP")
    • address: 192.168.100.50 (inside IP)
    • port: 443
