D-Link DI-624S manual Home UPnP AV

Using the Configuration Menu (continued)

Home > UPnP AV

The UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) AV screen will allow the administrator to share audio and video files for viewing or listening over the network. These files, which would be stored on an external file-sharing device attached to one of the USB ports, can be added or adjusted by using the Select Directory Pop-up window previously described. No username or password will be necessary to view these files, yet clients who want to view or listen to these files must be running the UPnP AV protocol on their computer. The user may add up to 12 devices for sharing AV files through this router. External file sharing devices may be added to the UPnP function by entering its MAC address and clicking Apply. These entries will be listed in the MAC List table at the bottom of the screen. (Note: For the client implementation of this function, please see the user manual for the associated client PC)
