Does CDRouter support devices with symmetric NAT implementations?
CDRouter currently does not distinguish between symmetric NAT and
port-restricted NAT which are very similar. If the natMode
testvar is set to port-restricted either
implementation (port-restricted or symmetric) should pass the tests
in the nat.tcl module that verify the different NAT types.
Symmetric NAT is generally considered not to be peer-to-peer
friendly, and the P2P tests in the nat.tcl module may fail if the
DUT implements symmetric NAT. The P2P tests can be skipped in this
by setting the testvar natSupportsP2P
to a value of
no:
testvar natSupportsP2P no
