Detailed Description

Items to get a network address for UPnP devices and control points.

Addressing is Step 0 of UPnP networking. Through addressing, devices and control points get a network address. Addressing enables discovery (Step 1) where control points find interesting device(s), description (Step 2) where control points learn about device capabilities, control (Step 3) where a control point sends commands to device(s), eventing (Step 4) where control points listen to state changes in device(s), and presentation (Step 5) where control points display a user interface for device(s).

To have it available for tests:
"A URI is opaque if, and only if, it is absolute and its scheme-specific part does not begin with a slash character ('/'). An opaque URI has a scheme, a scheme-specific part, and possibly a fragment; all other components are undefined." E.g.: mailto:a@b. (Ref.: Opaque URI).

the following figure displays example URIs and their components.
