Managing NAT Transversal with Cisco IP Phones
Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple devices to share a single,
public, routable, IP address to establish connections over the Internet. NAT is
present in many broadband access devices to translate public and private IP
addresses. For VoIP to co-exist with NAT, NAT traversal is required.
Not all service providers provide NAT traversal. If your service provider does not
provide NAT traversal, you have several options:
•
NAT Mapping with Session Border Controller
•
NAT Mapping with SIP-ALG Router
•
NAT Mapping with a Static IP Address
•
NAT Mapping with STUN
