The method enables the PC to be informed about access to an upgrade. The method enables the upgrade to broadcast a message with an IP address and a port number. The method enables the PC to set up, in response to the message, a proxy client for communicating with a port of the upgrade indicated by the port number. The method enables the upgrade to set up a proxy server to handle a request from the proxy client for access to a second resource.
