RE: [FW1] what occurs first NAT or RULEBASE



You truly don't allow inbound traffic to the Public IP.. you allow inbound traffic to the object, which should have a private IP as it's IP and a public IP as it's NAT..

Think of it also as, it NAT's first since you have to route to the private IP..  always NAT first inbound, last outbound

That seems incorrect to me.  I think you may be thinking of NAT before
routing.  If NAT occurred before security policy, why would you have a web
server in a DMZ with a private IP NATed to a public IP and allow incoming
requests to the public IP?  It seems like you'd have to allow incoming
requests to the private IP to make that work, if CP operates the way you
think it does...  Just my .02, I'm not 100% sure.
Thanks,

Always NAT first. 


A CCSA question.
