DESCRIPTION
Select this check box to activate UPnP on the UAG. Be aware that anyone could use a
UPnP application to open the web configurator's login screen without entering the UAG's
IP address (although you must still enter the password to access the web configurator).
Select this check box to activate NAT-PMP on the UAG. Be aware that anyone could use
a NAT-PMP application to open the web configurator's login screen without entering the
UAG's IP address (although you must still enter the password to access the web
configurator).
Select this check box to allow traffic from UPnP-enabled or NAT-PMP-enabled
applications to bypass the security policies.
Clear this check box to have the security policies block all UPnP or NAT-PMP application
packets (for example, MSN packets).
Select through which WAN interface(s) you want to send out traffic from UPnP-enabled
or NAT-PMP-enabled applications. If the WAN interface you select loses its connection,
the UAG attempts to use the other WAN interface. If the other WAN interface also does
not work, the UAG drops outgoing packets from UPnP-enabled or NAT-PMP-enabled
applications.
The Available list displays the name(s) of the internal interface(s) on which the UAG
supports UPnP and/or NAT-PMP.
To enable UPnP and/or NAT-PMP on an interface, you can double-click a single entry to
move it or use the [Shift] or [Ctrl] key to select multiple entriess and click the right
arrow button to add to the Member list. To remove an interface, select the name(s) in
the Member list and click the left arrow button.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the UAG.
Click Reset to return the screen to its last-saved settings.
