Hello!
I actually did not get what I was looking for but it seems that I am looking at wrong product type for the functionality which I want i.e. I realised now that it is only a managed switch and it cannot bind to a static address on any interface and route the traffic between VLAN.
I think I need a router for the functionality I am looking for.
I agree to close this thread.
Thanks for your reponse and help.

Of couse these swiches can act as a L3 routers, routing between different IP subnetworks on the different VLANs. There is "just" no NAT capability - as this has no real usage in business networking on this device class. The addresses are bound to the VLAN, not to ports of course.
