Does Guardium support configuration between NAT and public connections?

Question & Answer


Question

Does Guardium support NAT (Network Address Translation) when connecting appliances with NAT IP addresses to appliances with standard IP addresses? For Example: Can I connect a NAT Aggregator and a "Regular" Aggregator to a NAT Central Manager?

Answer

Guardium does not support this configuration.

For environments that use both types of addresses, we would suggest to use two separate networks. For Example: All NAT collectors should report to a local NAT CM, While the "Regular" collectors should report to their own CM.
