Actually, I am suspicious that some middleware that is advertised and sold for use as a NAT box is in reality an application layer gateway or contains an ALG in an attempt to optimize communications. It would probably be hard for someone who is buying one of these to be able to tell the difference without actually trying it on their applications.

What I have found is that middleware works splendidly for my applications or it fails miserably.
