Node.js implementation of the NAT Port Mapping Protocol
This module offers an implementation of the NAT-PMP written in pure JavaScript. You can use this module to dynamically open and close arbitrary TCP and UDP ports against the network's internet gateway device.
Install with npm:
$ npm install nat-pmpvar natpmp = require('nat-pmp');
// create a "client" instance connecting to your local gateway
var client = natpmp.connect('10.0.1.1');
// explicitly ask for the current external IP address
client.externalIp(function (err, info) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log('Current external IP address: %s', info.ip.join('.'));
});
// setup a new port mapping
client.portMapping({ private: 22, public: 2222, ttl: 3600 }, function (err, info) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(info);
// {
// type: 'tcp',
// epoch: 8922109,
// private: 22,
// public: 2222,
// ...
// }
