12.2.4 Configuring the NAT
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP™) can permit the device seamlessly discover the presence
of other network devices on the network and establish functional network services for data
sharing, communications, etc. You can use the UPnP™ function to enable the fast
connection of the device to the WAN via a router without port mapping.
Before you start
If you want to enable the UPnP™ function of the device, you must enable the UPnP™
function of the router to which your device is connected. When the network working mode
of the device is set as multi-address, the Default Route of the device should be in the same
network segment as that of the LAN IP address of the router.
Step 1 Go to Menu > Configuration > Network > NAT.
Step 2 Check Enable UPnP checkbox to enable UPnP™.
Step 3 Select the Mapping Type as Manual or Auto in the drop-down list.
OPTION 1: Auto
If you select Auto, the Port Mapping items are read-only, and the external ports are set
by the router automatically.
1) Click Apply button to save the settings.
2) You can click Refresh button to get the latest status of the port mapping.
