-ThrottleLimit<Int32>
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet.

The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

Examples
Example 1: Add an external address
This command adds the external address 10.20.30.120 to a NAT. This example uses the placeholder a.b.c.0/24 to represent a public Internet address prefix.
PS C:\> Add-NetNatExternalAddress -IPAddress "a.b.c.0/24"
Example 2: Add an external address and a port range
This command adds an external address to a specified NAT, and specifies a range of ports to use for outbound connections. This example uses the placeholder a.b.c.0/24 to represent a public Internet address prefix.
PS C:\> Add-NetNatExternalAddress -IPAddress "a.b.c.0/24" -PortEnd 19999 -PortStart 10000
