SCOOPY+ S - User Manual
NAT routing is an obstacle to transmission with UDP, mainly for two reasons:
It does not allow unsolicited data to come in from the outside network. In other words, data
input is accepted on a port as an answer to a request from the local network, but an external
agent cannot directly initiate the transmission of a packet.
The terminal units on the LAN only know their private local address. On the other hand, agents
implementing the SIP protocol have to communicate to each other the addresses and ports to
be used for the media exchanges. Because of the NAT routing, agents do not get the real public
addresses, which leads to failure of the session setup attempts.
We are now looking at various methods used to overcome these obstacles.
NAT and use of a STUN server
The STUN protocol is a method which is often successful1 in helping the agents to discover their public
address even when they are "hidden" behind a NAT router. Here is the operation principle:
A STUN server is used, which is accessible over the Internet;
The address of this server is programmed into the agent (i.e. the audio codec in our topic);
The agent queries the server and discovers its public IP address and port number, as seen from
outside of the NAT router and LAN;
This addressing information is then used by the agent for negotiating and setting up a media
session.
The STUN server address is programmable in the menu or the html pages of a SCOOPY+ S. Besides, there
is also in the menu (keypad and display on the front of the unit) an enable/disable (on/off) selection,
without having to clear the server address.
There are many public STUN servers available on the Internet; here are a few examples, valid at the time
of writing:
Domain name
Numeric address
stun.aeta-audio.com
85.214.119.212
stun.sipgate.net
217.10.68.152
stun.counterpath.net
216.93.246.18
Examples of STUN servers
It is recommended to check that the server is operative. Moreover, numeric addresses may change, even
if the domain name stays the same. A list of servers can also be found on the support page of our web
site http://www.aeta-audio.com.
