    <title>Description</title>

    <para>Use this file to define dynamic NAT (Masquerading) and to define
    Source NAT (SNAT).</para>

    <warning>
      <para>The entries in this file are order-sensitive. The first entry that
      matches a particular connection will be the one that is used.</para>
    </warning>

    <warning>
      <para>If you have more than one ISP link, adding entries to this file
      will <emphasis role="bold">not</emphasis> force connections to go out
      through a particular link. You must use entries in <ulink
      url="shorewall-rtrules.html">shorewall-rtrules</ulink>(5) or PREROUTING
      entries in <ulink
      url="shorewall-tcrules.html">shorewall-tcrules</ulink>(5) to do
      that.</para>
    </warning>

    <para>The columns in the file are as follows.</para>

    <variablelist>
      <varlistentry>
        <term><emphasis role="bold">INTERFACE:DEST</emphasis> - {[<emphasis
        role="bold">+</emphasis>]<emphasis>interfacelist</emphasis>[<emphasis
        role="bold">:</emphasis>[<emphasis>digit</emphasis>]][<emphasis
        role="bold">:</emphasis>[<emphasis>dest-address</emphasis>[<emphasis
        role="bold">,</emphasis><emphasis>dest-address</emphasis>]...[<emphasis>exclusion</emphasis>]]|COMMENT}</term>

        <listitem>
          <para>Outgoing <emphasis>interfacelist</emphasis>. This may be a
          comma-separated list of interface names. This is usually your
          internet interface. If ADD_SNAT_ALIASES=Yes in <ulink
          url="shorewall.conf.html">shorewall.conf</ulink>(5), you may add ":"
          and a <emphasis>digit</emphasis> to indicate that you want the alias
          added with that name (e.g., eth0:0). This will allow the alias to be
          displayed with ifconfig. <emphasis role="bold">That is the only use
          for the alias name; it may not appear in any other place in your
          Shorewall configuratio</emphasis>n.</para>

          <para>Each interface must match an entry in <ulink
          url="shorewall-interfaces.html">shorewall-interfaces</ulink>(5).
          Shorewall allows loose matches to wildcard entries in <ulink
          url="shorewall-interfaces.html">shorewall-interfaces</ulink>(5). For
          example, <filename class="devicefile">ppp0</filename> in this file
          will match a <ulink
          url="shorewall-interfaces.html">shorewall-interfaces</ulink>(5)
          entry that defines <filename
          class="devicefile">ppp+</filename>.</para>

          <para>Where <ulink
          url="http://www.shorewall.net/4.4/MultiISP.html#Shared">more that
          one internet provider share a single interface</ulink>, the provider
          is specified by including the provider name or number in
          parentheses:</para>

          <programlisting>        eth0(Avvanta)</programlisting>

          <para>In that case, you will want to specify the interfaces's
          address for that provider in the ADDRESS column.</para>

          <para>The interface may be qualified by adding the character ":"
          followed by a comma-separated list of destination host or subnet
          addresses to indicate that you only want to change the source IP
          address for packets being sent to those particular destinations.
          Exclusion is allowed (see <ulink
          url="shorewall-exclusion.html">shorewall-exclusion</ulink>(5)) as
          are ipset names preceded by a plus sign '+';</para>

          <para>If you wish to inhibit the action of ADD_SNAT_ALIASES for this
          entry then include the ":" but omit the digit:</para>

          <programlisting>        eth0(Avvanta):
        eth2::192.0.2.32/27</programlisting>

          <para>Normally Masq/SNAT rules are evaluated after those for
          one-to-one NAT (defined in <ulink
          url="shorewall-nat.html">shorewall-nat</ulink>(5)). If you want the
          rule to be applied before one-to-one NAT rules, prefix the interface
          name with "+":</para>

          <programlisting>        +eth0
        +eth0:192.0.2.32/27
        +eth0:2</programlisting>

          <para>This feature should only be required if you need to insert
          rules in this file that preempt entries in <ulink
          url="shorewall-nat.html">shorewall-nat</ulink>(5).</para>

          <para>Comments may be attached to Netfilter rules generated from
          entries in this file through the use of COMMENT lines. These lines
          begin with the word COMMENT; the remainder of the line is treated as
          a comment which is attached to subsequent rules until another
          COMMENT line is found or until the end of the file is reached. To
          stop adding comments to rules, use a line with only the word
          COMMENT.</para>

      <varlistentry>
        <term><emphasis role="bold">SOURCE</emphasis> (Formerly called SUBNET)

        role="bold">,</emphasis><emphasis>address</emphasis>][<emphasis>exclusion</emphasis>]}</term>

        <listitem>
          <para>Set of hosts that you wish to masquerade. You can specify this
          as an <emphasis>address</emphasis> (net or host) or as an
          <emphasis>interface</emphasis> (use of an
          <emphasis>interface</emphasis> is deprecated). If you give the name
          of an interface, the interface must be up before you start the
          firewall and the Shorewall rules compiler will warn you of that
          fact. (Shorewall will use your main routing table to determine the
          appropriate addresses to masquerade).</para>

          <para>In order to exclude a address of the specified SOURCE, you may
          append an <emphasis>exclusion</emphasis> ("!" and a comma-separated
          list of IP addresses (host or net) that you wish to exclude (see
          <ulink
          url="shorewall-exclusion.html">shorewall-exclusion</ulink>(5))).
          Note that a colon (":") must appear between an
          <replaceable>interface</replaceable> name and the
          <replaceable>exclusion</replaceable>;</para>

          <para>Example: eth1:!192.168.1.4,192.168.32.0/27</para>

          <para>In that example traffic from eth1 would be masqueraded unless
          it came from 192.168.1.4 or 196.168.32.0/27</para>

          <para>The preferred way to specify the SOURCE is to supply one or
          more host or network addresses separated by comma. You may use ipset
          names preceded by a plus sign (+) to specify a set of hosts.</para>
        </listitem>
      </varlistentry>

      <varlistentry>
        <term><emphasis role="bold">ADDRESS</emphasis> (Optional) - [<emphasis
        role="bold">-</emphasis>|<emphasis
        role="bold">NONAT</emphasis>|[<emphasis>address-or-address-range</emphasis>[,<emphasis>address-or-address-range</emphasis>]...][:<emphasis>lowport</emphasis><emphasis

        role="bold">detect</emphasis>|<emphasis
        role="bold">random</emphasis>]</term>

        <listitem>
          <para>If you specify an address here, SNAT will be used and this
          will be the source address. If ADD_SNAT_ALIASES is set to Yes or yes
          in <ulink url="shorewall.conf.html">shorewall.conf</ulink>(5) then
          Shorewall will automatically add this address to the INTERFACE named
          in the first column.</para>

          <para>You may also specify a range of up to 256 IP addresses if you
          want the SNAT address to be assigned from that range in a
          round-robin fashion by connection. The range is specified by
          <emphasis>first.ip.in.range</emphasis>-<emphasis>last.ip.in.range</emphasis>.
          You may follow the port range with<emphasis role="bold">
          :random</emphasis> in which case assignment of ports from the list
          will be random. <emphasis role="bold">random</emphasis> may also be
          specified by itself in this column in which case random local port
          assignments are made for the outgoing connections.</para>

          <para>Example: 206.124.146.177-206.124.146.180</para>

          <para>You may follow the port range (or <emphasis
          role="bold">:random</emphasis>) with <emphasis
          role="bold">:persistent</emphasis>. This is only useful when an
          address range is specified and causes a client to be given the same
          source/destination IP pair. This feature replaces the SAME modifier
          which was removed from Shorewall in version 4.4.0. Unlike <emphasis
          role="bold">random</emphasis>, <emphasis
          role="bold">persistent</emphasis> may not be used by itself.</para>

          <para>You may also use the special value "detect" which causes
          Shorewall to determine the IP addresses configured on the interface
          named in the INTERFACES column and substitute them in this
          column.</para>

          <para>Finally, you may also specify a comma-separated list of ranges
          and/or addresses in this column.</para>

          <para>This column may not contain DNS Names.</para>

          <para>Normally, Netfilter will attempt to retain the source port
          number. You may cause netfilter to remap the source port by
          following an address or range (if any) by ":" and a port range with
          the format
          <emphasis>lowport</emphasis>-<emphasis>highport</emphasis>. If this
          is done, you must specify "tcp" or "udp" in the PROTO column.</para>

          <para>Examples:</para>

          <programlisting>        192.0.2.4:5000-6000
        :4000-5000</programlisting>

          <para>If you simply place <emphasis role="bold">NONAT</emphasis> in
          this column, no rewriting of the source IP address or port number
          will be performed. This is useful if you want particular traffic to
          be exempt from the entries that follow in the file.</para>

          <para>If you want to leave this column empty but you need to specify
          the next column then place a hyphen ("-") here.</para>
