  9. NAT traversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAT_traversal

    In Windows XP, NAT traversal is enabled by default, but in Windows XP with Service Pack 2 it has been disabled by default for the case when the VPN server is also behind a NAT device, because of a rare and controversial security issue. [6] IPsec NAT-T patches are also available for Windows 2000, Windows NT and Windows 98. [citation needed]
