Annotation

Overview and Scope

This device definition is compliant with the UPnP Device Architecture version 1.0.

This service definition enables the remote control, monitoring, and configuration of a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and DNS server, serving a residential LAN. Variables specified in this service are derived from DHCP options1 standardized in the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).

The LANHostConfigManagement is an OPTIONAL service specified in

urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:LANDevice,

one or more instances of which may be specified under the root device

urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:InternetGatewayDevice

NOTES:

• It is assumed that each DHCP server instance defined in the context of a LANDevice and modeled by this service, manages exactly one subnet. Changes / vendor extensions may be required to the specification if this assumption is not true.

• Currently this service does not model any DNS or Dynamic DNS specific functions.

• This service essentially performs administrative operations on the DHCP server component of an Internet gateway. As such, Out-of-Band mechanisms may be needed to enforce such as administrative mode and provide authentication and/or access control. Implementation details of such mechanisms are outside the scope of this document.
