Upnp - Planet Networking & Communication ADE-4400v3 User Manual

3.6.10.2 UPnP

UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) is a distributed, open networking standard that uses
TCP/IP for simple peer-to-peer network connectivity between devices. An UPnP device can
dynamically join a network, obtain an IP address, convey its capabilities and learn about
other devices on the network. In turn, a device can leave a network smoothly an
automatically when it is no longer in use. UPnP broadcasts are only allowed on the LAN.
How do I know if I'm using UPnP?
UPnP hardware is identified as an icon in the Network Connections folder (in Windows XP &
Windows ME). Each UPnP-compatible device that is installed on your network will appear
as a separate icon.
Click "Enable" to enable UPnP function and select the WAN Interface. Click "Apply
Changes" to apply your setting.
Note: Please Commit/Reboot if you want to make this settings effective immediately
