Re: [pcp] WG Call for Adoption: draft-tsou-pcp-natcoord-09

Dan,

Just trying to provide some more clarification...

Depends what you mean by CGN.

In the current draft version (-09), MAP_PORT_SET assumes that the NAT 
never changes port numbers. The NAT MAY change addresses.

It is possible to remove that assumption. We are planning to do that 
after the call for adoption. Then MAP_PORT_SET will be exactly like MAP, 
except that it works with port *sets* (obviously).

Hopefully the above explanation of the protocol will be sufficient for 
you to figure out its applicability. :)
