Which of the following statements about SecureXL NAT Templates is true?
A.
NAT Templates are generated to achieve high session rate for NAT. These templates store the NAT attributes of connections matched by rulebase so that similar new connections can take advantage of this information and do NAT without the expensive rulebase lookup. These are disabled by default and work only if Accept Templates are disabled.
B.
NAT Templates are generated to achieve high session rate for NAT. These templates store the NAT attributes of connections matched by rulebase so that similar new connections can take advantage of this information and do NAT without the expensive rulebase lookup. These are enabled by default and work only if Accept Templates are enabled.
C.
ACCEPT Templates are generated to achieve high session rate for NAT. These templates store the NAT attributes of connections matched by rulebase so that similar new connections can take advantage of this information and do NAT without the expensive rulebase lookup. These are disabled by default and work only if NAT Templates are disabled.
D.
DROP Templates are generated to achieve high session rate for NAT. These templates store the NAT attributes of connections matched by rulebase so that similar new connections can take advantage of this information and do NAT without the expensive rulebase lookup. These are disabled by default and work only if NAT Templates are disabled.
B is the right answer. Accept and NAT templates are enabled by default. Drop templates needs to be manually enabled under gateway object > optimization then enable the checkbox for drop optimization

correct,
In R80.20 and above (which includes R81.X), NAT Templates are enabled by default. It's important to note that this answer reflects the behavior in R81.X and above, as requested. The default state and behavior of NAT Templates have changed from earlier versions (R80.10 and below) where they were disabled by default
NAT Templates: These templates are used by SecureXL (Secure Acceleration) to optimize Network Address Translation (NAT) performance. When a connection is processed by SecureXL and matches a rule in the rulebase that requires NAT, SecureXL can create a NAT Template. This template stores the NAT attributes (such as translated IP addresses and ports) so that subsequent similar connections can use this information directly from the template, avoiding the need for a full rulebase lookup during NAT processing.
Enabled/Disabled: NAT Templates are disabled by default in SecureXL. They can be enabled, but they only work if "Accept Templates" are also disabled. This ensures that the templates are used appropriately and do not conflict with other acceleration mechanisms.
NAT templates are enabled by default since at least R80.40, so A is incorrect
