Note, this diagnosis utilize STUN server, you must have assigned a valid/viable STUN
server first.

„ Static NAT IP: Fill in the acquired NAT IP from network administrator, such as

218.81.107.51 mentioned above.

„ UDP traversal: Static NAT IP/UDP Map

Note

, if your NAT equipped with no fixed IP, such as those NATs dial into WAN by

PPPoE, then you must synchronize the NAT IP currently set into IP SIP Phone

whenever your NAT IP changed (such as NAT re-dialup). By default, the system will

regularly (every 10 minutes) auto-detect the NAT IP (if t

he

STUN server

set a

valid and viable server

) and notify you on the

IP SIP Phone status page

whenever it determines a mismatch between the static NAT IP you configured and

the one it auto-discovered by STUN protocol.

Alternatively, you may enable

Auto

Detect & Update Static NAT IP by STUN

to

auto-

refresh the newly changed NAT IP into

Static NAT IP

field whenever it

detects an inconsistency.

13.2.2. NAT Traversal by STUN

Setting up the NAT router is impossible in many cases, and new equipment may be too

expensive. For these environments, "Simple Traversal of UDP Through NATs" (STUN) has come
to rescue. To enable STUN, you must acquire the IP of your served STUN server and diagnose
your NAT to see if STUN is viable.

z To determine whether you are currently NATed or behind a firewall:

„ STUN server: configure your STUN server, such as “qt.com” (IP SIP Phone will

try to locate the STUN server of “qt.com” domain via DNS SRV query
(_stun._udp.qt.com) or you may explicitly specify the STUN server as
“STUN.qt.com” or 61.222.26.124. You can enter both dotted IP and DNS record.

„ Click 『Set and Diagnose NAT』to detect your NAT type. If the diagnosis is one

of the following, you could consider to enable STUN as a way to traverse NAT;
otherwise you should adopt option 1-『Stati

c NAT Route .

(a) Public internet (neither NAT nor Firewall is involved).
(b) Symmetric UDP Firewall
(c) Full cone NAT
(d) Restricted cone NAT
(e) Port restricted cone NAT.

Note: The NAT bundled with Windows 2000/XP/2003 can NOT be traversed by STUN

protocol, even though it may wrongly detected by STUN as Port-restricted NAT.
