1.1 Scaling Networks with NAT and PAT  
  1.1.5 Verifying PAT configuration  
Once NAT is configured, use the clear and show commands to verify that it is operating as expected.

By default, dynamic address translations will time out from the NAT translation table after a period of non-use. When port translation is not configured, translation entries time out after 24 hours, unless reconfigured with the ip nat translation command. Clear the entries before the timeout by using one of the commands in Figure .

Translation information may be displayed by performing one of the tasks in EXEC mode.

Alternatively, use the show run command and look for NAT, access list, interface, or pool commands with the required values.
