RTFM for natd(8):

-a | -alias_address address
            Use address as the alias address.  If this option is not
            specified, the -n or -interface option must be used.  The
            specified address should be the address assigned to the pub-
            lic network interface.

            All data passing out through this addresses interface will be
            rewritten with a source address equal to address. All data
            arriving at the interface from outside will be checked to see
            if it matches any already-aliased outgoing connection.  If it
            does, the packet is altered accordingly.  If not, all
            -redirect_port and -redirect_address assignments are checked
            and actioned.  If no other action can be made, and if
            -deny_incoming is not specified, the packet is delivered to
            the local machine and port as specified in the packet.
