Symmetric SIP and RTP (i.e. announce the same address (host:port)
which will be source address) is really important for work behind
NAT because allows simple detection of external address directly from
recvfrom() :) Otherwise both sides shall implement STUN (not
working for all cases), ICE (cumbersome) or similar horrible
approach.

But if your "B2BUA NAT device" (what's this???) sits on NAT
border and proxies RTP, none of this is really needed.
