UPnP Control Point Software on Windows XP
This appendix provides instructions for configuring the UPnP on your computers to work with the Wireless
Gateway.
UPnP is an architecture for pervasive peer-to-peer network connectivity of intelligent appliances, Wireless
devices, and PCs of all form factors. It is designed to bring easy-to-use, flexible, standards-based
connectivity to ad-hoc or unmanaged networks whether in the home, in a small business, public spaces, or
attached to the Internet. UPnP is a distributed, open networking architecture that leverages TCP/IP and the
Web technologies to enable seamless proximity networking in addition to control and data transfer among
networked devices in the home, office, and public spaces.
UPnP is more than just a simple extension of the plug and play peripheral model. It is designed to support
zero-configuration, "invisible" networking, and automatic discovery for a breadth of device categories from a
wide range of vendors. This means a device can dynamically join a network, obtain an IP address, convey its
capabilities, and learn about the presence and capabilities of other devices. DHCP and DNS servers are
optional and are used only if available on the network. Finally, a device can leave a network smoothly and
automatically without leaving any unwanted state behind.
UPnP Control Point Software on Windows XP with Firewall
On Windows XP versions earlier than SP2, Firewall support is provided by the Windows XP Internet
Connection Firewall. You cannot use the Windows XP Internet Connection Firewall support on a system that
you intend to use as a UPnP control point. If this feature is enabled, although the control point system may
display controlled devices in the list of network devices, the control point system cannot participate in UPnP
communication. (This restriction also applies to controlled devices running on Windows XP systems earlier
than SP2.)
On Windows XP SP2 and later, Firewall support is provided by Windows Firewall. Unlike earlier versions,
Windows XP SP2 can be used on a system that you intend to use as a UPnP control point.
To turn off the Firewall capability on any version of Windows XP, follow the steps below:
1. In the “Control Panel”, select "Network and Internet Connections".
2. In the "Network and Internet Connections" dialog box, select "Network Connections".
3. In the "Network Connections" dialog box, right-click on the local area connection entry for your network;
this will display a menu. Select the "Properties" menu entry.
4. In the "Local Area Connection Properties" dialog box, select the "Advanced" tab. Disable the Internet
Connection Firewall by de-selecting the entry with the following label:
"Protect my computer and network by limiting or preventing access to the computer from the Internet".
5. Click "OK".
SSDP requirements
You must have SSDP Discovery Service enabled on your Windows XP system to use the UPnP Control
point software.
SSDP Discovery Service is enabled on a default installation of Windows XP. To check if it is enabled on your
system, look in Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services).
Installation procedure
To install the Control point software on Windows XP, follow the steps below:
1. In the “Control Panel”, select "Add/Remove Programs".
