4.5.4 UPnP
Choose “Access Management→UPnP”, you can configure the UPnP in the screen (shown in
Figure 4-32).
UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) is a distributed, open netw
orking standard that uses TCP/IP for
simple peer-to-peer network connectivity between devices. An UPnP device can dynamically join
a network, obtain an IP address, convey its capabilities and learn about other devices on the
network. In turn, a device can leave a network smoothly and automatically when it is no longer in
use. UPnP broadcasts are only allowed on the LAN.

UPnP devices and enable exchange of simple product and service descriptions.
