When Should You Use Clear xlate?

GreenT

The company I work for re-located their ASA 5510 to a new office location with a new static IP assigned to us from our ISP. If I update our NAT rules with this new static IP do I need to run the clear xlate command or should I just add new NAT rules?

When should you run the clear xlate command?

Thanks in advance!

after add new NAT for new IP, especial static NAT, I think you need to clear xlate, BUT 
xlate have timeout if you move ASA from site to site I think timeout will automatic clear all xlate.

xlate will clear after on its timeout. also to make sure things are fresh, you can clear that manually too.
