man -k sharing
InternetSharing(8) - simple NAT/router configuration daemon
threads::shared(3pm) - Perl extension for sharing data structures between threads

man InternetSharing

man defaults


It appears the com.apple.nat.plist is not created until internet sharing is turned on, so you might want to turn it on through the GUI and examine the resulting plist file.

defaults read /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.nat

Note that the defaults command reads plist files, but fails if you specify the plist file extension ".plist"
Leave the file extension off when accessing a plist file with the defaults command.

Good luck. Smilie

There may be a simpler way, so examine the other SystemConfiguration/ plist files after enabling the internet sharing feature...
