UPnP
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP™) is a set of protocols that allows a PC to automatically dis-
cover other UPnP devices (anything from an internet gateway device to a light switch),
retrieve an XML description of the device and its ser vices, control the device, and sub-
scribe to real-time event notification.
By default, UPnP is enabled on the Netopia Gateway.
For Windows XP users, the automatic discover y feature places an
icon representing the Netopia Gateway automatically in the “My
Network Places” folder. Double-clicking this icon opens the Gate-
way’s web UI.
PCs using UPnP can retrieve the Gateway’s WAN IP address, and automatically create NAT
por t maps. This means that applications that suppor t UPnP, and are used with a UPnP-
enabled Netopia Gateway, will not need application layer gateway suppor t on the Netopia
Gateway to work through NAT.
You can disable UPnP, if you are not using any UPnP devices or applications.
