style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype"'>There have been a few emails
discussing NATS and Access Grid connectivity on the list lately. I am
trying to setup and Access Grid at another site. Trying to go through
their NAT on my end is no problem. I see all external and local site video just
fine. The only issue is the NATted site will get most external
video streams that are connected but they do not see their local video.
Also as they restart their video, more remote site video streams appear. Just
no local video. This is no surprise as NATed routers do not have true end to
end connectivity and it may break some IP protocols such as UDP. I am testing in
the NCSA Lobby (venue server) and as this site does not support off site
multicast, they are bridging unicast. I have tested this in AG
2.4/3.0.2. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Palatino Linotype"><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype"'>My question is…if
I would setup my own venue server, would I be able to pull off any tricks for
both sides to transmit and received video just between our two sites? Hoping
only just connecting between two sites would help out some how… Is there
any way to build a stripped down venue server that would pull off any port
forwarding tricks? I remember there was a project called AG Connector but
I can’t find any information about it. To anyone’s knowledge,
would this be useful in my quest?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
