    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_address_translation

    RFC 2663 uses the term network address and port translation (NAPT) for this type of NAT. [5] Other names include port address translation (PAT), IP masquerading, NAT overload, and many-to-one NAT. This is the most common type of NAT and has become synonymous with the term NAT in common usage.

  3. Broadcast address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcast_address

    A special definition exists for the IP address 255.255.255.255. It is the broadcast address of the zero network or 0.0.0.0, which in Internet Protocol standards stands for this network, i.e. the local network. Transmission to this address is limited by definition, in that it is never forwarded by the routers connecting the local network to ...

  4. Professional video over IP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_video_over_IP

    In practice, this means that video over IP will not work on overloaded networks. Since IP does not of itself offer any traffic guarantees, this must be applied at the network engineering level. One approach to this is the "quality of service" approach which simply allocates sufficient bandwidth to video-carrying traffic that it will not congest ...

  5. NAT traversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAT_traversal

    Network address translation typically uses private IP addresses on private networks with a single public IP address for the router facing the Internet.The network address translator changes the source address in network protocols for outgoing requests from that of an internal device to its external address, so that internal devices can communicate with hosts on the external network, while ...

    The term IP Datacasting (IPDC) is used in DVB-H for the technical elements required to send IP packets over DVB-H broadband downstream channel combined with a return channel over a mobile communications network such as GPRS or UMTS. The set of specifications for IP Datacast (phase1) was approved by the DVB project in October 2005.

    the local IP:port as seen locally by the host and the internal part of the NAT. public endpoint, external endpoint the external IP:port mapped by the NAT, as seen by the network and the external part of the NAT. remote endpoint the IP:port of the other peer as seen by the network, or the external parts of both NATs.
