Managed NAT Gateway

With IONOS CLOUD Managed NAT Gateway, you can enable internet access to virtual machines without exposing them to the internet through a public interface. It acts as an intermediary device that translates IP addresses between the private network and the public internet.

Why choose Managed NAT Gateway

Managed NAT Gateway enables outbound-only internet connectivity, allowing your database servers to initiate connections for updates and backups while remaining completely invisible to external attackers. The gateway blocks all unsolicited inbound traffic automatically.

• Fully managed service: IONOS CLOUD handles all operational complexity so you can focus on your applications, such as infrastructure maintainenance or patch applications.

• High availability and reliability: Built-in redundancy and failover mechanisms ensure consistent outbound connectivity for your critical workloads.

• Cost-effective: Pay only for what you use with transparent, predictable pricing. No overhead from managing self-hosted gateways.

• Seamless integration: Native integration with IONOS CLOUD services, VDCs, LANs, and so on, for unified management.

• Expert support: Access to IONOS CLOUD support team for technical assistance and guidance on best practices.

• Quick setup and configuration: Straightforward provisioning and management through the Data Center Designer (DCD) or the Cloud API .
