I am going through the Universal Plug and Play Device Architecture
document. In this document, a managed IP network is defined as one for
which a DHCP server is available. If no DHCP server is available, the
network is considered unmanaged.

Is this a well understood and agreed upon definition of managed IP
networks, or is this just the UPnP Forum's spin on manageability?

Thanks,
Gus

I think, they made that one up.
