According to the NAT standard, a router _can_ change the source port of a packet. In this case some routers change the heartbeat packets' source port, meaning master servers may be unable to accommodate certain servers at least without workarounds or further configuration.

I suppose the logical solution is to collect the port information from the data part of the heartbeat and not the source port of it.
