Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices, along with
the feature to control data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages for users
running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on supported systems. By letting the
application
control the required settings and removing the need for the user to control the advanced
configuration of their device will make tasks such as port forwarding become easier.
Both user‟s Operating System and its relevant applications must support UPnP in addition to the
router. Windows XP and Windows Me have a native built-in support for UPnP (when the
component is installed). Windows 98 users may have to install the Internet Connection Sharing
client from Windows XP in order to support UpnP feature. Windows 2000 does not support
UPnP.
Disable: Check to inactivate the router‟s UPnP functionality.
Enable: Check to activate the router‟s UPnP functionality.
UPnP Port: Default setting is 2800. It is highly recommended for users to use this port value. If
this value conflicts with other ports that have been used, you are allowed to change the port
number.
Click Apply to confirm the settings.
