Network Address Translation (NAT)
- NAT IPv6 translations offloading to NPU (SRX4600, SRX5400,
SRX5600, and SRX5800)—You can enhance the efficiency of
Network Address
Translation
(NAT)
IPv6 translations on SRX
Series
Firewalls
by offloading these tasks to the
network processing
unit
(NPU). This includes handling
IPv6 to IPv4, IPv4 to IPv6, and IPv6 to IPv6 translations.
Offloading these processes to the NPU
decreases the CPU load on the SPU, resulting in improved performance for NAT data packet
processing.
Consequently, this optimizes the handling of non-ALG
traffic and ensures seamless communication between IPv4 and IPv6
networks.
