Will nat match in vrf support on Cisco 9300?

[RaviCepheid]

I want to access two machines having the same IP addresses, I have narrowed the requirement by using VRF and route leaking but am stuck on the natting part, I wanted to do natting within the VRF, where one of the VRF interfaces will act as an outside interface, with IP nat outside and another interface will act a the Inside interface.

Can someone help me to know whether it supports c9300 or not?

If it does support, then which software version?

I think it support in ios xe for asr1000 platforms not for c9k platforms.

VRF means 2 different process - and have different routing table -  its all depends on how you routing setup -

If the NAT inside VRF should work as i remember (not tested myself) - check Limitation and License requirement if you looking to deploy NAT.

Hello RaviCepheid,

Yes, you can perform NAT within a VRF on Cisco Catalyst 9300 switches. The capability you're looking for is supported in the Cisco IOS XE software. The specific software version that supports this feature can be found in the Cisco documentation or by referring to the Cisco Software Advisor tool on the official Cisco website.

Here's a high-level approach to achieving NAT within a VRF on a Cisco Catalyst 9300:

1. Configure VRFs: Set up the VRF instances for the inside and outside interfaces.

2. Enable NAT: Configure NAT within the VRF for translation between the inside and outside interfaces.

3. Define NAT Rules: Specify the NAT rules and translations based on your requirements.
