19.2.2 Cautions with UPnP
The automated nature of NAT traversal applications in establishing their own services and opening
security policy ports may present network security issues. Network information and configuration
may also be obtained and modified by users in some network environments.
When a UPnP device joins a network, it announces its presence with a multicast message. For
security reasons, the UAG allows multicast messages on the LAN only.
All UPnP-enabled devices may communicate freely with each other without additional configuration.
Disable UPnP if this is not your intention.
