UseUPnP Property
      
 

Description

Determines if component uses UPNP to open ports on firewall.


Property type

A Boolean value.  


Syntax

object.UseUPnP [= value]



The UseUPnP Property syntax has these parts:

Part Description
object An expression evaluating to an object of type wodXMPP.
value A Boolean value.

Remarks

Setting the UseUPnP property to True will cause wodXMPP to try to discover any (Universal Plug and Play) UPnP-capable devices on local network, and will try to open external ports on those devices before file transfer is initiated. It will use that IP/Port when it notifies remote contact about possible IP/Ports where it could try to connect. More than one such device can exist on the network. wodXMPP will try to use all of them, if available.

wodXMPP will send instruction to UPnP device to open port when you issue SendFile method. UPnP port will remain open only until file transfer completes, or you call Disconnect method to disconnect from the server.
