LABEL DESCRIPTION
Active the Universal Plug
and Play (UPnP) Feature Select this check box to activate UPnP. Be aware that anyone could use

configuration changes
through UPnP Select this check box to allow UPnP-enabled applications to
automatically configure the ZyXEL Device so that they can
communicate through the ZyXEL Device, for example by using NAT
traversal, UPnP applications automatically reserve a NAT forwarding
port in order to communicate with another UPnP enabled device; this
eliminates the need to manually configure port forwarding for the UPnP
enabled application.
