Abstract
A gateway may enable an end system to determine a translated address corresponding to an original address (of the end system). The end system may embed such determined translated address into a data portion of packets sent according to a signaling protocol. Another end system may eventually receive the data portion and determine the translated address corresponding to the original address. Using the translated address, the another end system may communicate back to the end system to set up a data path.
