v1.0, January 2009
• Destination IP Address, and IP Subnet Mask. If the destination is a single host, type a
subnet value of 255.255.255.255.
• Gateway IP Address. This must be a router on the same LAN segment as the router.
• Metric. Type a number between 2 and 15. This represents the number of routers between
your network and the destination. Usually, a setting of 2 or 3 works, but if this is a direct
connection, set it to 2.
5. Click Apply to either save your changes. If you added a static route, it is added to the Static
Routes screen.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) helps devices, such as Internet appliances and computers, access
the network and connect to other devices as needed. UPnP devices can automatically discover the
services from other registered UPnP devices on the network.
1. Select UPnP on the main menu to display the UPnP screen:
2. Fill in the settings on the UPnP screen:
• Turn UPnP On. UPnP can be enabled or disabled for automatic device configuration. The
default setting for UPnP is enabled. If disabled, the router will not allow any device to
automatically control the resources, such as port forwarding (mapping), of the router.
• Advertisement Period. The advertisement period is how often the router advertises
(broadcasts) its UPnP information. This value can range from 1 to 1440 minutes. The
default period is for 30 minutes. Shorter durations ensure that control points have current
device status at the expense of additional network traffic. Longer durations might
compromise the freshness of the device status but can significantly reduce network traffic.
