Isn xAP similar to uPnP?
There is some overlap between the goals of uPnP and xAP, but there are also major differences. • xAP is network agnostic; uPnP is limited to TCP/IP networks in its native implementation. • xAP is suited to very limited capability devices and high-end devices alike; uPnP messages are typically several kilobytes in size and require an XML parser in order to interpret them. • uPnP is focussed on automatic discovery and configuration of a devices network capabilities. xAP solves this problem from another perspective, by requiring minimal configuration.
