Design of configuration management for UPnP-based digital home gateway

The operational and manageable application mode of digital home gateway was proposed. This kind of home gateway breaks the limit to the simplified business of existing home gateway. It not only provides interoperability of digital home network devices, but also extends broadband services directly to home network devices. It implements automatic server's remote management for home network device, facilitates interpenetration and intercommunication of telecom network and home network. Automatic and terminal management technology for multiple services in or out of home network, is combined with UPnP protocol framework, and provides reusable software design pattern. Home gateway realizes zero configuration of network connection and transparence of data transmission. Furthermore, it can provide operational and manageable service capability for telecom networks. Therefore, it conforms to the development trend of digital home.
