1 Scope
This document specifies the characteristics of the UPnP networked service named WANIPConnection, version 2. This service definition is compliant with UPnP Device Architecture 1.0[1]. It is one component of the Device Control Protocol for the UPnP Internet Gateway Device (see [3]).
This service enables a UPnP control point to:
-
• configure and control an IP connection between a LAN client on one side of an Internet gateway (see [3]) and a WAN host on the other side;
-
• manage any physical WAN interface-such as DSL or cable-that supports an IP connection.
This service is a required in a WANConnectionDevice (see [5]) when the device supports an IP connection.
