To Enable NAT For An Interface:

  1. Go to Firewall --> NAT
  2. Inside NAT select the tab 'Outbound'
  3. There are two radio buttons on that page select 'Manual Outbound NAT'
  4. Select interface that you want to enable NAT this is normally WAN interface.
  5. Select the Source Type --> choose 'Network'. Source --> enter the LAN IP address range.
  6. Translation --> Select Interface address.
