40.12 NAT Translation Table
This table’s parameters define multiple NATs for SIP control and RTP media using
Static NAT rules. This table creates NAT rules for translating a source IP address per
VoIP interface (SIP control and RTP media traffic) into NAT IP addresses. This allows,
for example, the separation of VoIP traffic between different ISTP’s, and topology
hiding (of internal IP addresses to the "public" network). Each IP interface (configured
in the Multiple Interface table - InterfaceTable parameter) can be associated with a
NAT rule in this table, translating the source IP address and port of the outgoing
packet into the NAT address (IP address and port range).
