-**NAT loopback:** lets LAN devices access each other via the router's WAN interface. Also known as "Hairpinning", it's often used when connecting to the DDNS domain of your router via the LAN. These days, this setting is almost never needed. Also, it can create speed bottlenecks.

-**NAT target: **defines how NAT is implemented in loopback situations. Masquerade is the default, but involves an additional lookup, and the mapping is done towards an interface. SNAT is minutely faster, as its NAT mapping points directly to the destination IP and thus bypasses the lookup stage. However, SNAT is less reliable than Masquerade.
