NATs and firewalls are a problem for applications using voice and video streaming, such as IP telephony, because they need to establish voice or video channels dynamically. The Simple NAT and Firewall Control (SNFC) protocol allows clients to send requests for this purpose to serving NATs and/or firewalls. The protocol is designed to provide a very simple and basic solution that can easily be implemented and used.}, }
