The AP can be managed by SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), and the SNMP management
functionality can be disabled. The user can specify the name (used as a password) of the read-only and
read-write community. In addition, up to 5 SNMP trap targets can be set in the SNMP Trap table.

UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) enables a Windows XP user to automatically discover peripheral devices
by HTTP. When the UPnP functionality is enabled, the user can see the AP in My Network Places (the
Network Neighborhood) of Windows XP. The AP can be given a friendly name that will be shown in
My Network Places. Double-clicking the icon in My Network Places that stands for the AP will launch
the default Web browser for the user to configure the AP.
