Simplified Local Area Network Setup

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 services, control the device, and sub- scribe to real-time event notification. PCs using UPnP can retrieve the Gateway’s WAN IP address, and automatically create NAT port maps. This means that applications that sup- port UPnP, and are used with a UPnP-enabled Motorola Netopia® Gateway, will not need application layer gateway support on the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to work through NAT. By default, UPnP is enabled on the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
