Configuring Near-End NAT Traversal for IP Endpoints
The Mitel CS-5200/5400/5600 supports traversing near-end NAT using statically assigned NAT
addresses. An administrator configures the NAT device to always associate a specific public
address with the Mitel CS-5200/5400/5600 native address. This is also known as “Full Cone
NAT.” The Mitel CS-5400 has two IP addresses, so it requires two static NAT assignments. The
static NAT assignment and the IP endpoint configuration are illustrated below.

Configure the NAT device to perform
a static NAT assignment so that a
designated public IP address (for
example , 208.132.33.66) always
corresponds to the Inter -Tel CS-5x00
private address (for example ,
192.168.1.17).
The IP endpoint must be
configured to “talk” to the (public)
NAT IP address of the Inter -Tel
CS-5x00 (for example,
208.132.33.66).
