RE: [Simple] MSRP connection problem

[wangxiao <wangsmile at huawei.com>]

Hi, Paul
I think of your meams is that relay is a proxy used to transmit the message.
The user behind a NAT,he can connect relay which provides service for him.
Because of use TCP,so connect relay successful,both relay and user can send 
data cross NAT. But there has another problem,MSRP uses INVITE and its
response
to exchange SDP(offer/answer).The INVITE how to cross NAT?( whether or not
the user must use TCP to receive INVITE?)

Thanks

Thank for 

Sean Wang

I'm responding to simple too because maybe others want to discuss this.

If you were behind a residential NAT, you might need to use the services
of a relay out in the open internet - maybe its a free one, or maybe you
have to contract for service.

If you are in an enterprise, you probably have your own relay in the DMZ.

Either way, it works because you can connect to it, and it is in a place
where it can both make and receive connections. It sounds like you may
not have seen the MSRP relay draft.It is
draft-ietf-simple-msrp-relays-05.txt.
