UDP hole punching is one of the most common techniques used to establish UDP connections with systems behind NAT. It is called UDP hole punching because it punches a hole in the firewall of the network which allows a packet from an outside system to successfully reach the desired client on a network using NAT. If UPnP or manual port forwarding configurations don't help you and your node is still not working, it might be accessible through built-in NAT hole punching capabilities. Try to add the following flag into the service configuration file: --nat-port-mapping=false. It will skip NAT port mapping and will grant priority to the NAT Traversal.
