Hi,
I have a RV160 router that I want to use between a device that has the same ip adress as another device that i'm connected to. I want to use static NAT on this device to hide his adress and expose another one.
I thought that static Nat would be easy to setup but it looks like I miss something.
You can see the setup here of my static NAT table. The WAN adress is 172.16.1.1.
My understanding is that I should be able to ping my device(192.168.1.111) with the adress 172.16.1.10. Am I right?
Thanks for your help.

Hello
if you try to ping the real address of a host via its natted address sourced from a device that resides on another rtr and shares the same common subnet of the initiating host then it won’t work as both real hosts addresses needs to be natted not just the one side. then you should be able to ping each host via their respective NAT address

I'm not sure to understand (Maybe my question wasn't clear)
What I want to do is to redirect all communications (ports and ICMP) from the WAN port to a specific IP adress on the LAN side of the same router.
From what we understand, we can do that using Static NAT.
Am I right? If so, can you provide a procedure to do it?

Hello,
the rule looks by the book. Can you check the 'Enable' box ?

Hi Georg,
Thank you for the link, it's the documentation that I used to setup my RV160 from the begining.
Yes the enable box is checked.
I finaly succeed to connect to a telnet service but I can't ping the host.
There is something that I don't understand: When I use the All Trafic Services, I can't ping the NAT adress (on the public side), if I use any other service I have a response but it's not the host (on the private side) that reply to the ping, it's the router. Can you explain that behavior?
Best regards
