Operating Instructions

UPnP™

This product allows you to use UPnP™ compatible applications and UPnP™ compatible devices. The UPnP™ function is compatible with PCs that use a wired or wireless connection. Regarding the use of UPnP™ supporting applications (Windows/MSN Messenger etc.) see page 119.

1.Click UPnP in Options.

2.Set Enable/Disable for UPnP.

3.Set a time for Automatic deletion of UPnP port mapping (IGD).

This function allows you to set a time to delete the port opened dynamically by Messenger supporting functions. Set a time (hour) between 1 and 24 hours. If Indefinite is selected, the port will not be deleted automatically. In this case, it is necessary to manually delete the port, either by restarting this product, or clicking [Delete Table] on the UPnP™ Port Mapping Table on the status page.

4.Set the Time Setup for UPnP Port Open Request (CP).

Set the time to open a port for forwarding a packet to a UPnP™ compatible router connected to the WAN side of this product. If Request a Specified Time or Indefinite is selected, first, a request is made to the UPnP™ compatible router for a port to be opened for a specified time, but if that request is denied, indefinite is requested. If Request an Indefinite Time is selected, indefinite is requested from the start.

Notes

Once a port has been registered, and the deleting time set above has passed, the port will be deleted. No matter whether the application is being used or not, when the specified time is reached the port is closed.

When using an application intermittently for over 24 hours, such as voice chat, set the timer to indefinite. It is necessary to manually delete the port either by restarting this product, or clicking Delete Table on the UPnP Port Mapping Table on the status page. (see page 110)

You may have to set the Time Setup for UPnP Port Open Request (CP) to Request an Indefinite Time, depending upon the UPnP™ compatible router connected to the WAN side of this product.

5.When setup is complete, click [Save].

The entered information is saved.

Note

When saving, do not cut the power supply. If cut, saving might not be completed successfully.
