Need to understand when we do destination nat why there is no option for bidirectional ?

 

For destination nat the return traffic comes without bi directional option not available due to the PA being stateful and matching

the session?

@MP18,

It's more to do with how a destination NAT actually works; you can't make a bi-directional destination NAT policy, and it really wouldn't make any sense to do so.
