4.2.8 UPnP
Configuring UPnP on this page.
UPnP is an acronym for Universal Plug and Play. The goals of UPnP are to allow devices to connect seamlessly and to
simplify the implementation of networks in the home (data sharing, communications, and entertainment) and in corporate
environments for simplified installation of computer components. The UPnP Configuration screen in Figure 4-2-10 appears.

The page includes the following fields:
Object Description
• Mode Indicates the UPnP operation mode. Possible modes are:

Enabled: Enable UPnP mode operation.

Disabled: Disable UPnP mode operation.
When the mode is enabled, two ACEs are added automatically to trap UPNP
related packets to CPU. The ACEs are automatically removed when the mode is
disabled.
• TTL The TTL value is used by UPnP to send SSDP advertisement messages. Valid
values are in the range from 1 to 255.
•
Advertising Duration The duration, carried in SSDP packets, is used to inform a control point or control
points about how often it or they should receive an SSDP advertisement
message from this switch. If a control point does not receive any message within
the duration, it may suggest that the switch no longer exists. Due to the unreliable
nature of UDP, as standard it is recommended that such refreshment of
advertisements to be done at less than one-half of the advertising duration. In the
implementation, the switch sends SSDP messages periodically at the interval
one-half of the advertising duration minus 30 seconds. Valid values are in the
range from 100 to 86400.
