	Returns the name of the router device that we are talking to with UPNP.
void	NET::UPNP::ClaimUDPPort (uint16 port)
	Instructs the router to redirect all UDP packets sent to a specific port to us.
void	NET::UPNP::ClaimTCPPort (uint16 port)
	Instructs the router to redirect all TCP connection attempts to a specific port to us.
void	NET::UPNP::ReleaseUDPPort (uint16 port)
	Instructs the router that we are no longer interested in a specific udp port.
void	NET::UPNP::ReleaseTCPPort (uint16 port)
	Instructs the router that we are no longer interested in a specific tcp port.
Variables
bool	NET::UPNP::AllowNinjaNatTechniques = true
	Whether the framework should attempt to try other nat-opening techniques if UPNP is not available when either of the Claim*Port functions are called. These techniques may include sending out packets and trying to open tcp connections. Default is true.
