A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 3235 Title: Network Address Translator (NAT)-Friendly Application Design Guidelines Author(s): D. Senie Status: Informational Date: January 2002 Mailbox: dts@senie.com Pages: 13 Characters: 29588 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: NONE I-D Tag: draft-ietf-nat-app-guide-07.txt URL: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3235.txt This document discusses those things that application designers might wish to consider when designing new protocols. While many common Internet applications will operate cleanly in the presence of Network Address Translators, others suffer from a variety of problems when crossing these devices. Guidelines are presented herein to help ensure new protocols and applications will, to the extent possible, be compatible with NAT (Network Address Translation).
