A Network Address Translator (NAT) Traversal Mechanism for Media
Controlled by the Real-Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP)
Abstract
This document defines a solution for Network Address Translation
(NAT) traversal for datagram-based media streams set up and
controlled with the Real-Time Streaming Protocol version 2 (RTSP
2.0). It uses Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) adapted
to use RTSP as a signaling channel, defining the necessary RTSP
extensions and procedures.
