Option Description
Enable UPnP Configures your Gateway as a uPnP Internet gateway. UPnP allows for dynamic connectivity between devices on
a network. A UPnP-enabled device like your Gateway can obtain an IP address, advertise its capabilities, learn
about other connected UPnP devices and then communicate directly with those devices. The same device can
end its connection cleanly when it wishes to leave the UPnP community. The intent of UPnP is to support zero-
configuration, "invisible" networking of devices including intelligent appliances, PCs, printers, and other smart
devices using standard protocols.

remote entities, such as Network Magic or any software application that discovers and manages network devices.
