Actually, it should magically work without doing anything. You do not
even need distinct destination ports: Linux implements symmetric NAT,
where the public IP/Port will be dynamically allocated depending on the
internal IP:port and the external IP:port. As long as the internal IP is
different, you do not need to ensure different internal ports.

If it does not magically work (with STUN disabled), then there are still
bugs...

I have never tried it myself.
