Network Address Translation (NAT)

In NAT terminology, the inside network is
the set of networks that is subject to
translation.
Routers are able to change the source and
destination address of packets that is
traversing through itself.
In MikroTik, there are two NAT Chains:
SRC-NAT and DST-NAT.
NAT rules work on IF-THEN principle.
Prepared by- M Abdullah Al Naser ([email protected])

74

SRC-NAT
SRC-NAT changes packets source address.

Can be used to reach public network from a

private network.
Masquerade is one type of SRC-NAT.
It is not possible to reach internal servers
from outside.

DST-NAT
DST-NAT changes packets destination IP
address and port.
It can be used to reach internal servers from
public network.
Configuring DST-NAT will be discussed later in
this course.
