NAT exemption

Hi,

I have a FG-60-E-BDL to be configured for one of my customers. I need to know whether i can exempt the LAN traffic from NAT based on the destination. Its a flat network with a single Vlan and the internet traffic should go through the firewall with NAT while the traffic towards their branches should be exempted from the NAT.

It's just about FW policies you have and need to add. Does the branch traffic come/go through the same interface the internet traffic comes/goes through? Then you need to separate branch traffic by source and/or destination addresses/subnets in a new policy without NAT since the interface is the same.

additional: mind the order of your policies! FGT Policies are first come first serve! 

So policies for the branches have to come first if they use the same source net and/or interface!
