| src_addr_translation dictionary | Specifies the type of source address translation enabled for the transport config and the pool that the source address translation will use. | ||
| pool string | Specifies the name of a LSN or SNAT pool used by the specified transport config. Name can also be specified in fullPath format: /Common/foobar
When type is none or automap the pool parameter will be replaced by none keyword, thus any defined pool parameter will be ignored. | ||
| type string |
| Specifies the type of source address translation associated with the specified transport config. When set to snat the pool parameter needs to contain a name for a valid LSN or SNAT pool. | |
| src_port integer | Specifies the source port to be used for the connection being created. If no value is specified an ephemeral port is chosen for the connection being created. The accepted range is between 0 and 65535 inclusive. | ||
