Introduction

IGDv2 for Linux is an updated version of Linux-IGD implementation http://linux-igd.sourceforge.net/. This new version is created on base of UPnP IGD:2 specifications available from http://upnp.org/specs/gw/igd2. Main changes are:

• Support for IPv6 firewall control via the new UPnP WANIPv6FirewallControl service (http://upnp.org/specs/gw/UPnP-gw-WANIPv6FirewallControl-v1-Service.pdf)
  
• AddAnyPortMapping() action that allows proposing a port mapping, and if fails returns some available mapping back
  
• DeletePortMappingRange() allows removing a range of port mappings
  
• GetListOfPortMappings() returns a list of port mappings existing
  
• Enhanced eventing for port mapping status throug the SystemUpdateID state variable
  
• No infinite portmappings – maximum lease time is one week
