Using UPnP™ (Universal Plug and Play)

UPnP™ can automatically configure your router to be accessed from the Internet.
In order to use this feature, your router needs to support this feature and it must be
enabled. Most router manufacturers disable this feature as the default setting. See
http://panasonic.co.jp/pcc/products/en/netwkcam/ for details and see your
router manual for how to enable UPnP™. After the UPnP™ is enabled on the
router, set [Enable] for auto port forwarding.

Note

The camera's UPnP™ does not support IPv6. Use this feature in IPv4.
