aioupnp is a python 3.6-8 library and command line tool to interact with UPnP gateways using asyncio. aioupnp requires the netifaces and defusedxml modules.
Verify python is version 3.6-8
python --version
pip install aioupnp
git clone https://github.com/lbryio/aioupnp.git
cd aioupnp
pip install -e .

UPnP uses a multicast protocol (SSDP) to locate the gateway. Gateway discovery is automatic by default, but you may provide specific headers for the search to use to override automatic discovery.
If m-search headers are provided as keyword arguments then all of the headers to be used must be provided, in the order they are to be used. For example:
aioupnp --HOST=239.255.255.250:1900 --MAN=\"ssdp:discover\" --MX=1 --ST=upnp:rootdevice m_search
By default, the network device will be automatically discovered. The interface may instead be specified with the --interface, provided before the command to be run. The gateway used on the interface network may be specified with the --gateway_address argument.
aioupnp --interface=wlp4s0 --gateway_address=192.168.1.6 m_search
from aioupnp.upnp import UPnP
async def main():
upnp = await UPnP.discover()
print(await upnp.get_external_ip())
print(await upnp.get_redirects())
print("adding a port mapping")
await upnp.add_port_mapping(1234, 'TCP', 1234, upnp.lan_address, 'test mapping')
print(await upnp.get_redirects())
print("deleting the port mapping")
await upnp.delete_port_mapping(1234, 'TCP')
print(await upnp.get_redirects())
asyncio.run(main())
If aioupnp is failing with m-search timeouts this means the UPnP gateway (the router) isn't being found at all. To see if this error is expected try running m_search with debug logging, which will print out the packets sent and received:
aioupnp --debug_logging m_search
If you only see packets being sent or the replies are only from devices that aren't your router (smart devices, speakers, etc), then there are three options:
- your router does not support UPnP (this is unlikely)
- UPnP is turned off in the web gui for your router (more likely)
aioupnphas a bug (very likely if you don't see your router manufacturer doing well in the supported devices table)
If you see replies from the router but it still fails, then it's likely a bug in aioupnp.
If there are no replies and UPnP is certainly turned on, then a local firewall is the likely culprit.
If it still doesn't work, you can send a bug report using an included script. This script will try finding the UPnP gateway using aioupnp as well as miniupnpc and then try add and remove a port mapping using each library. The script does this while capturing the packets sent/received, which makes figuring out what went wrong possible. The script will create a file with this packet capture (aioupnp-bug-report.json) and automatically send it.
Note: the bug report script currently does not work on MacOS
