Hiya
Can anyone explain to me what NAT traversal is and how it impacts VPN s?

NAT traversal is UDP encapsulation of IPSec ESP packets used for IPSec passing trhough NATing routers.
It uses UDP ports 500 and 4500.
See http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/iaabu/pix/pix_sw/v_63/cmdref/gl.htm#wp1027312
and

for deep details.
