snom technology AG • 5 1 Overview Network address translation (NA T) is a reality today . There have been man y discussions about the evil and the good of this network topol- ogy and the replacement by IP version 6. However , operators and busi - ness want to offer V oIP services today and therefore must address the problem. The snom 4S NA T Filt[...]

Corporations which operate their infrastructure be - hind NA T and/or firewalls can talk to the public Internet through the filter . • Operators. Oper ators offer the NA T trav ersal feature to their cus - tomers[...]

When a user agent tries to register and needs the support of the filter , the filter will set up a local data structure representing the user agents. It will make sure that the connection to the user agents stays alive. It will also make sure that reque[...]

snom technology AG • 9 2 Architecture 2.1 The NAT Filter and SIP In the SIP architecture, the SBC acts as the first proxy that is contacted by user agents. There are two ways to make sure that the rel- evant tr affic gets routed trough the filter: • User agents can be set up to use the filter as outbound pro xy . When using this method, all[...]

snom technology AG • 11 [ S N O M 4S NA T F I L T E R ] 2.2.1 How does NAT work? NA T is essentially a translation table that maps public IP address and ports combinations to private IP address and port combinations. The translation table is implicitly set up when a packet is sent from the priv ate network to the public network. The association i[...]

12 • Architecture [ S N O M 4S NA T F I L T E R ] In SIP it is legal to send from a different port than the receiving port. When this is being done, there is no way of supporting these de- vices behind NA T . However , some phones offer an option that disables this mechanism so that the sending port is the same as the receiving port. T ypically ,[...]

These devices can register only for a short period of time, so that the REG- ISTER messages keep the port association open (the SIP messages are used to keep the port association). Also, these devices need a NA T -aw are media ser[...]

14 • Architecture [ S N O M 4S NA T F I L T E R ] When the NA T Filter sees a message that contains information about sending media (session description protocol, SDP), it opens a local globally routable port on behalf of the user agent and patches these mes- sages in a wa y that the destination will send media via this port. The NA T Filter will[...]

snom technology AG • 15 [ S N O M 4S NA T F I L T E R ] 2.3 SBC Behaviour 2.3.1 Registering When a user agent registers, it puts its IP address in the top Via. If the user agent is on public Internet or properly supports NA T , this Via will match the perceived IP address. In this case the SBC does not interfere with the registering process and j[...]

snom technology AG • 19 [ S N O M 4S NA T F I L T E R ] The distribution of user agents to a server is performed using DNS SRV (RFC 2782). This means that you need to list the available serv - ers on DNS level; the user agents must perform DNS SRV look ups and pick one of the servers (possible using the detection algorithms described below). The [...]
