Need clarification on definitions used in nat rules.

Hi,

When creating a NAT rule in OpnSense you can select things like, LAN net (ie the /24 network for lan for example in my case) or LAN address (ie the IP address of OpnSense on the LAN interface).

One definition I am unsure of is the option 'This Firewall'.

What address or range of addresses is this? If I am choosing a destination address of 'this firewall' where is it going? Or If I choose a source address of 'This Firewall' what Ip's are included in this definition.

I tried looking it up in the documentation but could not find an answer. Thank you in advance.

Pete
