4.7 UPnP Configuration
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a standard that easily enables intercommunication
between devices on a network. UPnP compliant devices can communicate between each
other as they are connected to an existing network. The product supports UPnP and
provides the following features.
* UPnP is enabled as a factory default condition, and thusly requires no additional
configuration.
- UPnP compliant OSes (Windows XP and Windows ME) can detect the product.
- The status of the product can be monitored via UPnP compliant OSes (Windows® XP and
Windows® ME), and some of its parameters are also configurable through these OSes.
- PC's within the LAN attached to the product may access UPnP ready applications such as
Windows® Messenger and MSN® Messenger.
Note that Windows® 98, Windows® 2000 and Macintosh® do not support UPnP. The
UPnP functions of the product may not be used under these OSes.
