Figure 35 Symmetric NAT
7.4 NAT and SIP
The Prestige must register its public IP address with a SIP register server. If there is a NAT
router between the Prestige and the SIP register server, the Prestige probably has a private IP
address. The Prestige lists its IP address in the SIP message that it sends to the SIP register
server. NAT does not translate this IP address in the SIP message. The SIP register server gets
the Prestige’s IP address from inside the SIP message and maps it to your SIP identity. If the
Prestige has a private IP address listed in the SIP message, the SIP server cannot map it to your
SIP identity.
A SIP ALG (Application Layer Gateway) or the Use NAT, STUN, and outbound proxy
features allow the Prestige to list its public IP address in the SIP messages.
7.5 SIP ALG
Some NAT routers may include a SIP Application Layer Gateway (ALG). A SIP ALG allows
SIP calls to pass through NAT by examining and translating IP addresses embedded in the
data stream. When the Prestige registers with the SIP register server, the SIP ALG translates
the Prestige’s private IP address inside the SIP data stream to a public IP address. You do not
need to use STUN or an outbound proxy if your Prestige is behind a SIP ALG.
7.6 Use NAT
If you know the NAT router’s public IP address and SIP port number, you can use the Use
NAT feature to manually configure the Prestige to use a them in the SIP messages. This
eliminates the need for STUN or a SIP ALG.
You must also configure the NAT router to forward traffic with this port number to the
Prestige.
