The `upnp` integration enables you to collect network statistics from your router such as bytes in/out and packets in/out. This information is provided by the [UPnP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Plug_and_Play)/[Internet Gateway Device (IGD) Protocol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Gateway_Device_Protocol) if enabled on your router.
The `upnp` integration enables you to collect network statistics from your router such as bytes in/out and packets in/out and WAN connectivity status.
