Therefore i have created a new network object called domain with name ***.com and have this added to rule. From my point of view it is necessary to add also a nat rule but i get the error message that this is not supported lower than R81. How can i fix the problem ?</P> Sun, 09 May 2021 02:10:58 GMT Rabab 2021-05-09T02:10:58Z https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Firewall-and-Security-Management/need-to-use-FQDN-in-NAT-rule-for-R80-40/m-p/117979#M16693 <P>Hello All,</P><P>Our external partner has switched from fixed ip address to fqdn.
