Description

Enables machines on the simulated Ethernet network ethernet-link to initiate accesses to real hosts without the need to configure the simulated machine with a real IP address. NAPT (Network Address Port Translation) uses the IP address and a port number of the host that Simics is running on to perform the access. Replies are then translated back to match the request from the simulated machine. This command also enables NAPT for accesses that are initiated from the simulated machine.

The service-node that will perform the port forwarding is selected automatically based on the Ethernet link unless one is specified using the service-node argument.
