Unfortunately, I don't know any way of working around this at this

curiosity, what type of router do you have?

A Netopia Cayman 3351 ADSL router.


Thanks for the information.


The noticy msg. comes every ~3 min in groups of 16. From tshark:

 1   0.000000     10.0.0.1 -> 239.255.255.250 SSDP NOTIFY * HTTP/1.1
...
16   1.860755     10.0.0.1 -> 239.255.255.250 SSDP NOTIFY * HTTP/1.1

And the last one expanded:

Hypertext Transfer Protocol
   NOTIFY * HTTP/1.1\r\n

It looks like this device relies on active broadcasting of the UPnP
service, rather then relying on client devices to do the discovery for
themselves.  I think it's beyond the scope of the script to try and
detect these kinds of active broadcast messages.
