Note that in some cases NAT traversal is not necessary. Some public service providers
of IP telephony keep track of the actual IP address used to register a phone, and the
one used in the SIP requests from the same phone, and then replaces the addresses in

routing. STUN is commonly used in real-time voice, video, mes-

The protocol allows applications operating through a NAT to

mapped (public) IP address (NAT address) and port number
that the NAT has allocated for the application’s User Datagram
Protocol (UDP) connections to remote hosts. The protocol
requires assistance from a 3rd-party network server (STUN
server).
