Procedure
1 Click the Manage & Monitor tab and click Organization Networks in the left pane.
2 Right-click the organization network name and select Configure Services.
3 Click the NAT - External IPs tab.
4 Type an IP address and click Add.
The IP address must be routable on the external network and unique across internal networks.
5 Click OK.
What to do next
Configure external IP mapping using the external IP address.
Configure External IP Mapping for an Organization Network
You can configure certain organization networks to provide external IP mapping. External IP mapping
provides external access to services running on virtual machines on the organization network.
When you configure external IP mapping, Cloud Director maps an external IP address and a port to a service
running on a port on a virtual machine for inbound traffic.
Both system administrators and organization administrators can configure external IP mapping.
Prerequisites
An external NAT-routed organization network and an external IP address.
Procedure
1 Click the Manage & Monitor tab and click Organization Networks in the left pane.

3 Click the NAT- External IP Mapping tab and click Add.
4 Configure the port forwarding rule.
a Select an external IP address.
b Select an external port.
c Type the IP address of the destination virtual machine.
n

n
If the virtual machine is not fenced, type its internal IP address.
d Select an internal port.
e Select a protocol for the type of traffic to forward.
f Click OK.
5 Click OK.
Reset an Organization Network
If the network services, such as DHCP settings, firewall settings, and so on, that are associated with an
organization network are not working as expected, reset the network.
Before you delete a provider vDC, you should reset the organization networks that depend on it.
No network services are available while an organization network resets.
