Abstract:
This document describes a protocol for automating the process of
creating Network Address Translation (NAT) port mappings. Included in
the protocol is a method for retrieving the external IPv4 address of
a NAT gateway, thus allowing a client to make this external IPv4
address and port known to peers that may wish to communicate with it.
From 2005 onwards this protocol was implemented in Apple products
including Mac OS X, Bonjour for Windows, and AirPort wireless base
stations. In 2013 NAT-PMP was superseded by the IETF Standards-Track
Port Control Protocol, which builds on NAT-PMP and uses a compatible
packet format, but adds a number of significant enhancements [PCP].
