Prestige 2602H-6xC Support Notes
UPnP Operations
•Addressing: UPnPv1 devices MAY support IPv4, IPv6, or both. For IPv4, each devices should have DHCP client, when the device gets connected to the network, it will discover DHCP server on network to get an IP address. If not, then
•Discovery: Whenever a device is added on the network, it will advertise it's service over the network.
Control point can also discover services provided by devices.
•Description: Control points can get more detailed service information from devices' description in XML format. The description may include product name, model name, serial number, vendor ID, and embedded services...etc.
•Control: Devices can be manipulated by control points through Control message.
•Eventing: Devices can send event message to notify control points if there is any update on services provided.
•Presentation: Each device can provide their own control interface by URL link. So that users can go to the device's presentation web page by the URL to control this device.
•2. Using UPnP in ZyXEL devices
