Dear Alena Thanks for your comment. Please find my inline reply. Also, take a look at the email I've sent at cloudstack-dev@incubator.apache.org addressing Jason Bausewein

Found the same in API manual. but it is indeed possible; we patched createPortForwardingRule method to just have public/private endport parameter and its working. Are there some reasons why it's not provided in CloudStack 3.x? >>did we overlook some way of using the network source nat address as >>the static nat address for an instance? or some another solution to >>achieve the same? >We do have static nat support in cloudStack.

It gives an error saying "Can't enable static, ip address Ip[10.11.101.156-1] is a sourceNat ip address" >Hope this solution helps you. >-Alena. >> >>Regards >>/Mukesh >> >> Cheers /Mukesh
