- Path-Coupled Signaling for NAT/Firewall Traversal
- Complex protocols tend to negotiate secondary flows on the application layer. This, in the general case, prevents Firewalls and NATs from allowing or routing them, and communication becomes impossible. This paper describes the requirements and design of an end-application triggered, path-coupled signaling protocol for NAT/Firewall traversal. Finally, the paper shows...

- Implementation and Performance Study of a New NAT/Firewall Signaling Protocol
- The NAT/Firewall NSIS Signaling Layer Protocol (NAT/Firewall NSLP) is a path-coupled signaling protocol for explicit Network Address Translator and firewall configuration within an extensible IP signaling framework currently being developed by the IETF Next Steps In Signaling NSIS working group. This new protocol allows end hosts to signal along a...

- Explicit Mechanisms for Controlling NAT/Firewall Systems Dynamically
- NAT/Firewall systems are very widely utilized in today's network environments, such as intranets and the Internet. Together with many security enhancements, however, the use of NATs/Firewalls has raised a number of new issues and problems. Most of them related to the complex NAT/Firewall traversal problem, where applications and services are...

- Touring the Internet in a TCP Sidecar
- An accurate router-level topology of the Internet would benefit many research areas, including network diagnosis, inter-domain traffic engineering, and overlay construction. This paper presents TCP Sidecar and Passenger, two elements of a system for router-level Internet topology discovery. Sidecar transparently injects measurement probes into non-measurement TCP streams, while Passenger combines...

- NAT and Firewall Traversal Technical Report
- Due to the rapid growth of low-cost, Network-enabled devices, high-speed data service subscribers frequently install IP routers and Ethernet hubs in their home so that they can connect multiple devices to the broadband network. Frequently, these devices contain IP Network Address and Port Translation (NAPT) and Firewall capabilities. While NATs...

- Understanding the Behavior of TCP for Realtime CBR Workloads
- This paper examines the feasibility of sending real-time CBR workloads over TCP. This is motivated by the friendliness of NATs and firewalls towards TCP as opposed to UDP as well as by recent improvements in Internet's bandwidth and loss rates. Traditionally, TCP has been considered un-desirable for real-time CBR workloads....

- Using IPv6 and Teredo
- The combination of IPv6 and Teredo allows Windows-based hosts to use IPv6-enabled applications that require unsolicited, incoming, IPv6 traffic and global addressing over NATs. The combination of IPv6, Teredo, and a host-based, stateful, IPv6 firewall such as Windows Firewall simplifies the configuration of wanted, unsolicited, incoming, IPv6 traffic and protects...
