The statement is TRUE because Huawei Cloud NAT Gateway includes both public NAT Gateway and private NAT Gateway functionality. These two service types cover the two network-translation scenarios described.
A public NAT Gateway performs translation between a private VPC network and the Internet. Through SNAT, servers with private IP addresses can share Elastic IP addresses to access public networks. Through DNAT, internal servers can provide externally accessible services using public addresses.
A private NAT Gateway performs address translation between private networks. Huawei Cloud describes private NAT gateways as enabling servers in a VPC to communicate with on-premises data centers or other VPCs while translating private addresses to transit IP addresses. This is particularly valuable during network migration, address-overlap resolution, and hybrid-cloud integration.
Huawei's official NAT Gateway comparison therefore states that a public NAT Gateway connects a private network to the Internet, whereas a private NAT Gateway connects private networks.
The statement deliberately describes the NAT Gateway service family rather than only public NAT. Since Huawei Cloud provides translation in both private-to-private and private-to-public architectures, the proposition is correct.
