N150 Wireless ADSL2+ Modem Router DGN1000v3

By default, this check box is selected. You can disable UPnP for automatic device configuration. If you clear the Turn UPnP On check box, the modem router does not allow any device to automatically control the resources, such as port forwarding (mapping), of the modem router.

3.Type the advertisement period in minutes.

The advertisement period specifies how often the modem router broadcasts its UPnP information. This value can range from 1 to 1440 minutes. The default period is

30 minutes. Shorter durations ensure that control points have current device status at the expense of additional network traffic. Longer durations can compromise the freshness of the device status, but can significantly reduce network traffic.

4.Type the advertisement time to live in hops.

The time to live for the advertisement is measured in hops (steps) for each UPnP packet sent. Hops are the steps a packet takes between routers. The number of hops can range from 1 to 255. The default value for the advertisement time to live is 4 hops, which is fine for most home networks. If you notice that some devices are not being updated or reached correctly, it might be necessary to increase this value.

5.Click the Apply button.

The UPnP Portmap Table displays the IP address of each UPnP device that is accessing the modem router and which internal and external port that device has opened. The UPnP Portmap table also displays what type of port is open and whether that port is still active for each IP address.

6.(Optional) To refresh the information in the UPnP Portmap Table, click the Refresh button.
