Defaults

NAT rewrite is enabled by default. This feature can be enabled when *inspect
dns* is configured even if a *policy-map type inspect dns* is not defined.
To disable, *no nat-rewrite* must explicitly be stated in the policy map
configuration. If *inspect dns* is not configured, NAT rewrite is not
performed.
