  <title>Enabling or Disabling Static NAT on a VPC</title>
  <para>A static NAT rule maps a public IP address to the private IP address of a VM in a VPC to
    allow Internet traffic to it. This section tells how to enable or disable static NAT for a
    particular IP address in a VPC.</para>
  <para>If port forwarding rules are already in effect for an IP address, you cannot enable static
    NAT to that IP.</para>
  <para>If a guest VM is part of more than one network, static NAT rules will function only if they
    are defined on the default network.</para>
