STUN is used to determinate the addresses Ekiga "announces" as
reachability in the packets. Primarily Ekiga finds its own NAT type (if
any) and the public IP of the NAT gateway with it.

It depends on your setup if STUN is the right choice or not, using STUN
and doing external stuff to the packet's contents might give trouble.
To be sure one might need a packet-plot of such a connection.
