Question : Traceroute returning same destination multiple times

Trying to get some clarification, I've tried other sources but no real answer. I'm performing a traceroute to a device with a NAT'd address that is connected via VPN Tunnel, for each device that is hidden, I am recieving the destination IP. Is this normal behaviour or is there something wrong. Could this affect performance between the two devices?

Answer : Traceroute returning same destination multiple times

>should the devices all respond with the NAT'd address?

No.  Assuming this is what's going on, the NAT box lies to you when it sees IPs that match the NAT rules - that's the whole point.
