Interactive features

Some operations listed in the taskbar can be performed by right-clicking on the table of NAT rules:

  • Delete,
  • Cut,
  • Copy,
  • Paste,
  • Search in logs,
  • Search in monitoring.

Mathematical comparison

Whenever you come across a drop-down list of objects in the columns (except Status and Action) a mathematical operator icon will appear (). It can only be used if an object other than Any has been selected.

You can therefore customize the parameters of your traffic using the following icon in 4 different ways:

  • “=" (or ): the value of the attribute corresponds to what is selected.
  • “!=" (or ) the value of the attribute is different from what has been selected.
  • “<“ (or ; used for source and destination ports only): the port number of the traffic is lower than what is selected.
  • “>“ (or ; used for source and destination ports only): the port number of the traffic is higher than what is selected.

Adding/modifying objects

Some drop-down lists offer the button, which leads to a pop-up menu:

  • Create an object: new objects can be created directly from the Filter/NAT module
  • Edit object: when an object is in a field, it can be edited directly to modify it (name, IP address for a host, adding the object to a group, etc.), except for read-only objects ("Any", "Internet", etc).
