NAT traversal for local IP access
Abstract:
A node is provided that includes a home base station collocated with a local gateway (L-GW) providing access to a local Internet Protocol (IP) network. The node performs an establishment procedure with a security gateway (SeGW), and discriminates a packet. The node uses a first interface configured at the L-GW and a second interface which is configured between the home base station and a gateway for the home base station. The first and second interfaces are tunneled through a same IP security (IPsec) tunnel opened between the home base station and the SeGW. The home base station for the first interface uses a first IP address that is either same as or different from a second IP address used by the home base station for the second interface. The node uses either distinct ranges of Tunnel Endpoint Identifiers (TEIDs) or the first and second IP addresses to discriminate the packet.
