NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       ipnat - user interface to the NAT

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       ipnat [ -lnrsvCF ] -f <filename>

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       ipnat  opens  the filename given (treating "-" as stdin) and parses the
       file for a set of rules which are to be added or removed  from  the  IP
       NAT.

       Each  rule processed by ipnat is added to the kernels internal lists if
       there are no parsing problems.  Rules are  added  to  the  end  of  the
       internal  lists,  matching the order in which they appear when given to
       ipnat.

OPTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       -C     delete all entries in the current NAT rule listing (NAT rules)

       -F     delete all active entries in the current NAT  translation  table
	      (currently active NAT mappings)

       -l     Show the list of current NAT table entry mappings.

       -n     This  flag  (no-change)  prevents  ipf  from actually making any
	      ioctl calls or doing anything which would  alter	the  currently
	      running kernel.

       -s     Retrieve and display NAT statistics

       -r     Remove  matching	NAT rules rather than add them to the internal
	      lists

       -v     Turn verbose mode on.  Displays  information  relating  to  rule
	      processing and active rules/table entries.
