This object specifies the type of NAT applied to this outbound NAT table entry, using the NatType syntax to indicate which NAT mechanism (such as EasyIP, NAT pool, or static mapping) governs address translation for this rule. Admins set this when provisioning outbound NAT on the router to choose how internal addresses are translated when leaving via this entry. For example, setting the type to indicate EasyIP NAT ties translation to the router's own interface address rather than a separate address pool.
