SMCD3GNV4 and SMCD3GNV4E Wireless EMTA Gateway Administrator Manual 

Enable UPnP 

Determines whether the Gateway’s UPnP capabilities are enabled or disabled. Choices are: 

• 

Enabled = enables the Gateway’s UPnP capabilities. 

• 

Disabled = disables the Gateway’s UPnP capabilities.   

Advertisement Period 

Specify how often, in seconds, the Gateway broadcasts its UPnP information. This value can 

range from 1 to 2147483648 seconds. Short durations ensure that control points have current 

device status at the expense of additional network traffic. Long durations can compromise the 

freshness of the device status, but can significantly reduce network traffic. 

Time To Live 

Configure the number of hops (steps) for the advertisement time to live. The time to live for the 

advertisement is measured in hops for each UPnP packet sent. The time to live hop count is the 

number of steps a broadcast packet is allowed to propagate for each UPnP advertisement 

before it disappears. The number of hops can range from 1 to 255. The default setting should be 

fine for most home networks. If some of your devices are not being updated or reached 

correctly, you can increase this value slightly.
