Enabling UPnP for Windows XP/ME

UPnP is short for Universal Plug and Play, which is a networking architecture
that provides compatibility among networking equipment, software, and
peripherals. The DCS-5300 is a UPnP enabled internet camera. If your operating
system is UPnP enabled, the device will be easier to configure. If you do not
want to use the UPnP functionality, it can be disabled by unselecting “Enabled
on the DDNS/UPnP settings page under “Advanced” in the configuration menu.
Use the following steps to enable UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) settings only
if you are running Windows XP/ME. If you are running Windows 98/2000, UPnP
is not available by industry standards.
