The UPnP NAT Traversal combines with the UPnP feature and NAT feature.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is an architecture for pervasive peer-to-peer
network connectivity of PCs and intelligent devices. The Network Address
Translation (NAT) is used in gateway devices that form the boundary between the
public Internet and the private LAN. As IP packets from the private LAN traverse
the gateway, NAT translates a private IP address and port number to a public IP
address and port number, tracking those translations to keep individual sessions
intact.
