NAT traversal with session border controllers
network address translators (NAT) are used to overcome the lack of IPv4 address availability by hiding an enterprise or even an operator's network behind one or few IP addresses. The devices behind the NAT use private IP addresses that are not routable in the public Internet.The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) has established itself as the de facto standard for voice over IP (VoIP) communication. In order to establish a call, a caller sends a SIP message, which contains its own IP address. The callee is supposed to reply back with a SIP message destined to the IP addresses included in the received SIP message. This will obviously not work if the caller is behind a NAT and is using a private IP address.
