2. Using UPnP in ZyXEL devices
In this example, we will introduce how to enable UPnP in ZyXEL devices. Currently, Microsoft MSN is the
most popular application that uses UPnP, so we will use Microsoft MSN as an example. From this example, you
will also learn how MSN benefits from the NAT traversal feature in UPnP.
In the following network example, computers PC1 and PC2 are signed in to an MSN server to set up video
conferencing. PC1 is connected to a UPnP-enabled router that uses PPPoE Internet connection type. Since the
router supports UPnP, no NAP mapping is necessary for PC1. As long as UPnP is activated on the router, a
dynamic mapping is automatically created for PC1 on the router. Note that PC1 must also support UPnP (which
is available in Microsoft ME or XP).
