Network Address Translation (NAT) and Voice over IP (VoIP)
NAT is a function that allows multiple devices to share the same 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. To enable
VoIP to co-exist with NAT, some form of NAT traversal is required.
Some ITSPs provide NAT traversal, but some do not. If your ITSP does not provide
NAT traversal, you have several options.
• “NAT Mapping with Session Border Controller,” on page 48
• “NAT Mapping with SIP-ALG Router,” on page 48
• “Configuring NAT Mapping with a Static IP Address,” on page 48
