The following table describes the labels in this screen.
8.4 The UPnP Screen
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a distributed, open networking standard that uses TCP/IP for simple
peer-to-peer network connectivity between devices. A UPnP device can dynamically join a network,
obtain an IP address, convey its capabilities and learn about other devices on the network. In turn, a
device can leave a network smoothly and automatically when it is no longer in use.
See page 121 for more information on UPnP.
Use the following screen to configure the UPnP settings on your VMG. Click Network Setting > Home
Networking > UPnP to display the screen shown next.
