AFM NAT vs LTM NAT

This feature seems to have creeped up somewhere in the 12.x release for AFM? Or maybe it's been there but I've never seen it...   https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip-afm/manuals/produc...

hi peter,

 

so what is difference between the standalone CGNAT module and CGNAT module that integrated in the AFM NAT ?

CGNAT ALGs are still provisioned as they are today by attaching a profile to the Virtual Server but they interoperate with AFM dynamic-pat.

 

CGNAT LSN pools and dynamic-pat are mutually exclusive.
