Quick question
I'm doing some research on Remote Assistance and was wondering a situation where a user wouldn't fall into one of these categories
***These are the connections utilized in Remote Assistance
This is where I get lost at. Would this apply to older routers usually?
According to the book I am reading if the last resort Teredo can't make a connection it's due to a router configured with symmetric NAT routing or a firewall enabled. I am assuming port restricting would prohibit this type of connection as well.
Thoughts? Just curious if anything else would prevent making a connection using Remote Assistance.

- IPv4
- IPv6
- UPnP NAT address
- NAT traversal via Teredo

well Teredo is just for end users with IPv4 addresses only the router will NAT(its not true NAT as NAT is a IPv4 thing) them into a IPv6 address. well here is the issue what type of remote assistance is it? Is a URL based remote assistance or application based? Generally Application based remote assistance request establish a TCP connection so in turn symmetric NAT will be fine. But if it is URL symmetric will not work as a external host and can only begin communicating with the internal host if the internal client begin the connection.
