1) Created manual Static NAT rules for the Web server.
2) Cleared the following settings in the Global Properties > Network Address Translation screen:
– Allow bi-directional NAT
– Translate destination on client side

No. The first setting is not applicable. The second setting will reduce performance.

that the Gateway translates the traffic after accepting the packet.

C.
Yes. Both of these settings are only applicable to automatic NAT rules.
