8.8 UPnP CONFIGURATION
The modem/router supports a control point for Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) version 1.0,
and supports two key features: NAT Traversal and Device Identification. This feature
requires one active WAN interface. In addition, the host should support this feature. In the
presence of multiple WAN interfaces, select an interface on which the incoming traffic is
present.
With NAT Traversal, when UPnP command is received to open ports in NAT, the
application translates the request into system commands to open the ports in NAT and the
firewall.
For Device Identification, the application will send a description of the modem/router as a
control point back to the host making the request.
