PremierWave® XC HSPA+ Intelligent Gateway User Guide 29
4: Device Discovery and Quick Setup
Software embedded within the PremierWave XC HSPA+ intelligent gateway enables the device to
be easily discovered via the Ethernet network without any knowledge of the IP address or default
network configuration of the device.
The two methods supported are:
1. Accessing the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Device Using UPnP
2. Accessing the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Device Using DeviceInstaller
Accessing the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Device Using UPnP
This section covers the steps for locating a PremierWave XC HSPA+ unit and viewing its
properties and device details using UPnP (Network Discovery). You may also use the
DeviceInstaller utility to discover PremierWave XC HSPA+ units. See Accessing the PremierWave
XC HSPA+ Device Using DeviceInstaller on page 30.
The PremierWave XC HSPA+ units can be discovered automatically from Microsoft Windows®
platforms using UPnP (Network Discovery). UPnP enables devices to be discovered and a
refreshed list of devices available under "Network Places" within Windows Explorer as devices
come online or go offline.
Using the operations described below, it becomes a "plug and play" mechanism to reach the
device's Web UI (Web Manager) and complete the rest of the configuration.
Note: There is no new software to install as UPnP support is built-into Windows
operating systems, however it must be enabled on the Windows PC. Please see notes on
enabling UPnP (Network Discovery) on Windows XP and Windows 7 operating systems.
