OUTBOUND TRAFFIC Nat Rule number is not showing in Packet Capture. NAT rule 0 is always shown regardles

Question

i am using an XG230. 
 To recreate: Create an outbound LAN-WAN rule, the rule will auto-group into one of the default groups. 
 Generate outbound traffic and review the packet capture looking at the NAT and Firewall Rule IDs. 
 It will always show NAT Rule #0. 
 I checked the same with Inbound traffic and a NAT Rule does show for DNAT inbound WAN-LAN rules.

 Hi, 
 It seems from another thread that your appliance 'Base Firewall' license expired since 'Sun 31 Dec 2017', due to that your traffic going to pass using firewall rule id 0.
