this command will probably not fix the misconfiguration in the NAT rules.

Yasser Gomaa maybe this firewall is managed by Sophos Central? you could use that way to access the firewall.

I think there is no way to delete a NAT rule by CLI access? Then restore of the last working backup may help.

It worked like a charm thanks

Hi Yasser,

That is great to hear and thank you for the update.
