FW: NATing h.323 protocol stack

FW: NATing h.323 protocol stack

[Yan Doldonov]

Thierry thak you for the comment.

Quintum, whose hardware box we're thinking of using at the moment
specifically states in the manual to disable all software firewall h.323
natting capabilities and claims that their hardware devices have native
support for NATed environment and they also say that every software products
they've seen that do NAT for h.323 really do not do a full job as per their
opinion. We had an experience with another device by Polycom which claimed a
native support for NAT as well however all our attempts to make it work in
the NATed environment failed. 

So I am a litle confused here and really looking for a real world experience
of having made it work.
