H.460 NAT Firewall Traversal

You can configure VSX systems to use standards-based H.460.18 and H.460.19
firewall traversal, which allows video systems to more easily establish IP
connections across firewalls.
Description
Lets you specify whether the system should determine the
NAT Public WAN Address automatically.
• If the system is behind a NAT that allows HTTP traffic,
select Auto.
• If the system is behind a NAT that does not allow HTTP
traffic, select Manual.
• If the system is not behind a NAT or is connected to the
IP network through a Virtual Private Network (VPN),
select Off.
• If the system is behind a firewalled NAT router that is
UPnP™ (Universal Plug and Play) certified, select
UPnP.
Many routers used in homes and small businesses
support UPnP NAT traversal. If this is your situation, try
selecting UPnP first. If this selection does not work for
your router, select Auto or Manual.
