LABEL DESCRIPTION
Enable UPnP Select this check box to activate UPnP on the ZyWALL/USG. Be aware that anyone could
use a UPnP application to open the web configurator's login screen without entering the
ZyWALL/USG's IP address (although you must still enter the password to access the web
configurator).
Enable NAT-PMP NAT Port Mapping Protocol (NAT-PMP) automates port forwarding to allow a computer in
a private network (behind the ZyWALL/USG) to automatically configure the ZyWALL/
USG to allow computers outside the private network to contact it.
Select this check box to activate NAT-PMP on the ZyWALL/USG. Be aware that anyone
could use a NAT-PMP application to open the web configurator's login screen without
entering the ZyWALL/USG's IP address (although you must still enter the password to
access the web configurator).

Outgoing WAN
Interface
Select through which WAN interface(s) you want to send out traffic from UPnP-enabled
or NAT-PMP-enabled applications. If the WAN interface you select loses its connection,
the ZyWALL/USG attempts to use the other WAN interface. If the other WAN interface
also does not work, the ZyWALL/USG drops outgoing packets from UPnP-enabled or
NAT-PMP-enabled applications.
