MFP can be configured by adding following lines to prefs.js :

• ‘user_pref(”allpeers.enable_mfp”, true);’ to enable MFP which is currently disabled by default.
• ‘user_pref(”allpeers.mfp_approach”, <pref_type>);’ sets connection approach type to pref_type which is a number described in apIMFPService.idl.

Instructions on how to test MFP and NAT traversal are [:Testing_MFP: here].
