Gateway-Specific Actions

Configure SNAT on an Edge Transit Gateway

Note: Edge Transit Gateways support NAT only when High Performance Encryption (HPE) is disabled.

When SNAT is enabled, private subnet route tables in attached VPCs or VNets can receive a default route (0.0.0.0/0) through the gateway so instances reach the internet, depending on rule and Apply Route Entry settings.

Note: NAT rules do not copy from the primary gateway to high availability (HA) instances. Configure SNAT rules separately for each instance you select in the Instance dropdown.

Note: Each gateway allows up to 2000 SNAT rules and up to 2000 DNAT rules. To edit multiple translated IPs in one rule, use Aviatrix Controller; CoPilot does not support that edit path.

To enable SNAT and add rules:

Go to Cloud Fabric > Hybrid Cloud > Edge Gateways > Transit Gateways.
A table appears with the list of Edge Transit Gateways.
Click the Edge Transit Gateway name.
The Edge Transit Gateway Details page opens.
Click the Settings tab. Expand Network Address Translation (NAT).
Turn Source NAT to On.
In Instance, select the primary gateway or an HA instance to configure.
Click + Rule. Enter rule fields.
Refer to the Parameter Details table for more details.
