Enable agent for NAT gateway devices in private address space
When the NAT gateway is not in the public address space, you can enable the NATGateway agent to correct the potential problem of incorrect connectivity.
About this task
The NATGateway agent enables Network Manager to determine whether a given interface on a NAT gateway device is on the public or private side of the NAT gateway, and thereby correctly resolve device connectivity.
To overcome this problem, activate the NATGateway agent and provide Network Manager with a mapping file, NATGateways.txt. In this file, provide a list of all NAT gateway devices together with the interfaces on each device and a field to indicate whether the interface is on the public or private side of the NAT gateway.
This agent works in conjunction with the NATGatewayRetProcessing.stch stitcher and with the NATGateways.txt file in NCHOME/precision/etc
Table 1 provides the format of the NATGateways.txt file by showing an example of the content of this file. Fields in this text file must be separated by tabs.
