Is "wifi calling" using wifi instead of your mobile service?

I do not know, not an expert,
but as soon I switched the NAT from Secured to Open, it works on my Sprint LG phone. It has a separte WiFi On/Off, and that one was working.
The WiFi calling is also a On/Off but was not working

I think is is using purely WiFi signal not Sprint phone network for WiFi calling.
