3.7.8 NAT Traversal

NAT traversal is a challenge that all Service Providers looking to deliver public IP-based voice and multimedia services must solve. The goal of this function is to provide secure connection to subscribers behind NAT (Network Address Translation) devices and Firewalls. Overcoming this traversal problem will lead to widespread deployment of profitable voice and multimedia over IP services to any subscriber with broadband connection.

NAT router, and the NAT router uses a static WAN IP

 

address. This value is the same as the WAN IP of the front

 

NAT router.

Auto Discovery NAT IP

It is used when Vigor3300 is behind a NAT router, and the

Address

NAT router uses a dynamic WAN IP address such as a DHCP

 

or PPPoE client. The Vigor3300 requires a STUN server for

 

this option.

 

The “STUN” (Simple Traversal of UDP through NATs)

 

server is an implementation of the STUN protocol that

 

enables STUN functionality in SIP-based systems. It is an

 

application-layer protocol that can determine the public IP

 

and nature of a NAT device sitting between the STUN client

 

and STUN server.
