Used to locate UPnP devices on your home network. Used in conjunction with Universal Plug and Play Device Host, it detects and configures UPnP devices on your home network. A Universal Plug and Play device advertises its presence on the network to other devices and control points by using the Simple Service Discovery Protocol (SSDP). A new control point uses SSDP to discover Universal Plug and Play devices on the network. The information that is exchanged between the device and the control point is limited to discovery messages that provide basic information about the devices and their services, and a description URL, which can be used to gather additional information about the device. | ||

Your computer will be unable to located uPnP devices on the network. May be disabled if you don't have any UPnP devices. | ||
