NAT and Middlebox Traversal<br />

Middleboxes are problematic<br />

Basically: enforce directionality on communication<br />

establishment – client/server paradigm OK, others less so<br />

– Complex communication establishment procedures<br />

– Relays, coordination, etc.<br />

– There are some building blocks available (STUN/TURN/ICE)<br />

– Also consider address family translations (IPv6 to IPv4)<br />

Unless you really aren’t playing nice with middleboxes:<br />

– Structure the protocol design for this from the start!<br />
