Explanation

For remote users connected via AnyConnect VPN behind a Cisco FTD device, calls between remote users require the FTD to allow traffic between VPN clients, which is considered "outside to outside" traffic since VPN clients are logically on the outside interface. Without a proper NAT exemption or NAT policy that permits this outside-to-outside communication, the traffic between remote users will be blocked or dropped, causing issues such as no audio during calls. Cisco FTD requires explicit NAT rules to allow such communication; otherwise, the default behavior blocks this traffic. troubleshoot-common-anyconnect-communica.pdf
