ZyXEL Device so that they can communicate through the ZyXEL Device. For

eliminates the need to manually configure port forwarding for the UPnP enabled
application.
Allow UPnP to
pass through
Firewall
Select this to allow traffic from UPnP-enabled applications to bypass the firewall.
Clear this if you want the firewall to check UPnP application packets (for example,
MSN packets).
