Configuration
• Enable UPnP Presentation: Select this option to enable UPnP presentation for
the camera so that whenever a camera is presented to the LAN, shortcuts for the
connected cameras will be listed in My Network Places. You can click the shortcut
to link to the web browser. Currently, UPnP is supported by Windows® XP or later.
Note that to utilize this feature, please make sure the UPnP component is installed
on your computer.

this option to allow the camera to open ports on the router automatically so that
video streams can be sent out from a LAN. To utilize this feature, make sure that
your router supports UPnP and it is activated.
How does UPnP work?
UPnP networking technology provides automatic IP configuration and dynamic
discovery of devices added to a network. Services and capabilities offered by
networked devices, such as printing and file sharing, are available among each other
without bothersome network configuration. In the case of Network Cameras, you
will see Network Camera shortcuts at My Network Places.
