8.4 UPnP
UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network
devices, along with control and data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many
advantages for users running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on
supported systems makes tasks such as port forwarding much easier by letting
the application control the required settings, removing the need for the user to
control advanced configuration of their device.
Both the user’s Operating System and the relevant application must support
UPnP in addition to the router. Windows XP and Windows Me natively support
UPnP (when the component is installed), and Windows 98 users may install the
Internet Connection Sharing client from Windows XP in order to support UPnP.
Windows 2000 does not support UPnP.
