A security policy enables security devices to forward ICE messages. The security policy may use protection tokens to prevent Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. This allows endpoints to use Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) to enable multimedia communications across Network Address Translators (NATs) and other security devices.
