Configuring Your System for ITSP Interoperability

Network Address Translation (NAT) and Voice over IP (VoIP)

ATA Administration Guide

NAT Mapping with Session Border Controller

It is strongly recommended that you choose an ITSP that supports NAT mapping
through a Session Border Controller. With NAT mapping provided by the ITSP, you
have more choices in selecting a router.

NAT Mapping with SIP-ALG Router

If the ITSP network does not provide a Session Border Controller functionality, you
can achieve NAT mapping by using a router that has a SIP ALG (Application Layer
Gateway). The WRV200 router is recommended for this purpose, although any
router with a SIP-ALG can be used. By using a SIP-ALG router, you have more
choices in selecting an ITSP.

Configuring NAT Mapping with a Static IP Address

If the ITSP network does not provide a Session Border Controller functionality, and
if other requirements are met, you can configure NAT mapping to ensure
interoperability with the ITSP.

Requirements:

•

You must have an external (public) IP address that is static.

•

The NAT mechanism used in the router must be symmetric. See

“Determining

Whether the Router Uses Symmetric or Asymmetric NAT,” on page 52

•

The LAN switch must be configured to enable Spanning Tree Protocol and Port
Fast on the ports to which the SPA devices are connected.

NOTE

Use NAT mapping only if the ITSP network does not provide a Session Border
Controller functionality.
