3.13.1 Universal Plug and Play

Go to Access Management -> UPnP to see the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP).

UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices,

along with control and data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages

for users running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on supported

systems makes tasks such as port forwarding much easier by letting the application

control the required settings, removing the need for the user to control advanced

configuration of their device.

Both the user’s Operating System and the relevant application must support UPnP in

addition to the router. Windows XP and Windows Me natively support UPnP (when the

component is installed), and Windows 98 users may install the Internet Connection

Sharing client from Windows XP in order to support UPnP. Windows 2000 does not

support UPnP.
