Outbound NAT for traffic sent to G1100 LAN IP

Question

Is it possible for the G1100 Fios router to NAT LAN traffic that is sent to its LAN IP, so it can be sent over the Internet?

My use case: I have a LAN device that sends syslog messages, but can only send them to a device on the LAN subnet. I'd like to send these syslogs to the G1100, and have the G1100 forward them over the Internet.

A 'traditional' firewall would happily support such a NAT. Is it possible to configure this in the G1100?

No, G1100 does not expose this feature to the end user. The router itself is capable of doing this, as would almost any Linux computers out there, including Raspberry Pi 1-5. G1100 only performs post-routing NAT for masquerading, and limited pre-routing NAT for netmapping. You need another customized rule for pre-routing NAT for modifying the destination address.
