UPnP is short for Universal Plug and Play, which is a networking architecture that provides
compatibility among networking equipment, software, and peripherals. This device is an
UPnP enabled Network Camera. If your operating system is UPnP enabled, the device will
automatically be detected and a new icon will be added to "My Network Places." If you do
not want to use the UPnP functionality, it can be disabled.
In addition, this device also provides UPnP IGD function for NAT traversal easily. Use NAT
traversal when your device is located on an intranet (LAN) and you wish to make it available
from the other (WAN) side of a NAT router. With NAT traversal properly configured, all HTTP
traffic to an external HTTP port in the NAT router will be forwarded to the device.

UPnP NAT Traversal
When enabled, the device will attempt to configure port mapping in a NAT router on your
network, using UPnP™. Note that UPnP™ must be enabled in the NAT router first.
Port Range:
The port range will open in NAT router.
External IP address:
Show the IP address and port for WAN access through Internet. If NAT traversal is
configured successfully, user can use this IP address and port to access this device. The
external IP address is not shown in case NAT traversal function is failed.
Bonjour
Bonjour, also known as zero-configuration networking, enables automatic discovery of
computers, devices, and services on IP networks. Bonjour uses industry standard IP
protocols to allow devices to automatically discover each other without the need to enter IP
addresses or configure DNS servers. Specifically, Bonjour enables automatic IP address
assignment without a DHCP server, name to address translation without a DNS server, and
service discovery without a directory server. Bonjour is an open protocol which Apple has
submitted to the IETF as part of the ongoing standards-creation process.
