8 By default, the NAT core uses aliasing and uses random ports
9 when generating an alias for a connection. This works well for
10 the most protocols like SSH, FTP and so on. Though some
11 protocols might need a more transparent behavior or may depend
12 on the real port number the packet was sent from. You can change
13 the NAT mode by using the following commands:
14 </p>
15 <pre xml:space="preserve">$ VBoxManage modifyvm <varname>VM-name</varname> \
16--nataliasmode1 proxyonly</pre>
17 <pre xml:space="preserve">$ VBoxManage modifyvm "Linux Guest" --nataliasmode1 sameports</pre>
18 <p>
19 The first example disables aliasing and switches NAT into
20 transparent mode, the second example enforces preserving of port
21 values. These modes can be combined if necessary.
