# UPnP

## UPnP

* Go to Configuration->Network->UPnP

The UPnP stands for Universal Plug and Play, and it is a protocol used to easily connect devices to the Internet. It allows the camera to connect to the router in an easy manner to quickly allow for remote access. Below is a screenshot of the UPnP settings screen:
