Section 4 - LAN Configuration UPnP Setup Path: Network > LAN > UPnP Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a feature that allows the router to discover devices on the network that can communicate with the router and allow for auto-configuration. If a network device is detected by UPnP, the router can open internal or external ports for the traffic protocol required by that network device. If disabled, the router will not allow for automatic device configuration and you may have to manually open/forward ports to allow applications to work. To configure the UPnP settings: 1. Click Network > LAN > UPnP. 2. Toggle Activate UPnP to On. 3. Select a VLAN from the LAN Segment drop-down menu. 4. Enter a value for Advertisement Period.This is the frequency that the router broadcasts UPnP information over the network. A large value will minimize network traffic but cause delays in identifying new UPnP devices to the network. 5. Enter a value for Advertisement Time to Live. This is the number of steps a packet is allowed to propagate before being discarded. Small values will limit the UPnP broadcast range. A default of 4 is typical for networks with a few number of switches. 6. Click Save. 7. Your entry will be displayed in the UPnP Port Map List. To edit or delete, right-click an entry and select the action from the menu. Repeat steps 2-6 to add multiple entries. D-Link DSR-Series User Manual 23
