It is designed to bring easy-to-use, flexible, standards-based connectivity to ad-hoc or unmanaged networks whether in the home, in a small business, public spaces, or attached to the Internet

Universal Plug and Play is a distributed, open networking architecture that leverages TCP/IP and the Web technologies to enable seamless proximity networking in addition to control and data transfer among networked devices in the home, office, and public spaces.

Virtual Host

A network device, such as this router, or a server configured to perform Network Address Translation (NAT).

Virtual Server

Transparently redirects specific service requests (such as Web or FTP) to a dedicated local server.
