Session Border Controller: A Solution for NAT/Firewall Traversal Issues

Overview Enterprise and residential users gain strategic advantages when their voice, video and data communications run over a single converged IP network infrastructure. Unfortunately, the ability to capitalize on IP communications systems has been severely compromised because all residential and enterprise networks have Firewall and Network Address Translation (NAT) devices. This white paper explores the typical problems faced by NAT/Firewall enabled VoIP network configurations, investigates the advantages and disadvantages of popular solutions to these problems and finally, advocates a solution that is realistic and deployable in today's context.
