Abstract
A device may include a communication component that may communicatively couple to a first network. The device may also include a processor that may transmit a first signal via the communication component to a network address translation (NAT) system, the first signal including a first request to discover a server device. The NAT system may communicatively couple to the first network and a second network, such that the first network is inaccessible to the second network. The processor may then receive location data associated with the server device and transmit a second signal addressed to the server device based on the location data. The second signal is transmitted to the NAT system, such that the second signal may include a second request for a security policy from the server device. The processor may then receive the security policy via the NAT system and adjust one or more communication operations based on the security policy.
