I'm not so sure about option C. I was thinking option A might be the correct answer. The additional headers from NAT encapsulation could cause the packet size to exceed the MTU, leading to fragmentation and other issues.

Option A seems to be the consensus choice for the complication introduced by NAT in SDP.

Yes, fragmentation due to packet size exceeding MTU is definitely a concern.

True, but if the packet size exceeds the MTU, that could lead to further complications.

But option C raises a valid point too. The IP address specified may indeed be unrouteable.

I agree, option A seems plausible. The extra headers from NAT could definitely impact packet size.

Yeah, I agree with Johna. The IP address specified in the connection data field might be an internal, unrouteable address, which could cause problems. That makes the most sense to me.

Okay, so we know that NAT can cause some issues with the IP addresses and ports used in the SDP. I'm leaning towards option C as the correct answer.

Hmm, this question is tricky. I'm not entirely sure about the complications that NAT can introduce in SDP for a SIP call. Let me think through the options carefully.
