uPNP - needed on WiFi router?

Today when I was sitting with my laptop, I noticed that there was a lot of back and forth wireless traffic. I brought up my analyzer, and it shows that the Access Point is broadcasting uPNP packets on port 5000, and then any XP machine will reply on port 5678.

Where and when would uPNP be useful on the WiFi router...
