Table 14-1 Configuring UPnP
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Device Name (or UPnP
Name)
This identifies the ZyAIR in UPnP applications.
Enable the Universal Plug
and Play (UPnP) feature
Select this check box to activate UPnP. Be aware that anyone could use a
UPnP application to open the web configurator's login screen without entering
the ZyAIR's IP address (although you must still enter the password to access
the web configurator).
Allow users to make
configuration changes
through UPnP
Select this check box to allow UPnP-enabled applications to automatically
configure the ZyAIR so that they can communicate through the ZyAIR, for
example by using NAT traversal, UPnP applications automatically reserve a
NAT forwarding port in order to communicate with another UPnP enabled
device; this eliminates the need to manually configure port forwarding for the
UPnP enabled application.
