Anyone know how necessary UPnP is? From what I can tell, this setup does not run UPnP for automatic port forwarding

You'd need to run a daemon like miniupnpd to enable UPnP, however I'd avoid it if you can, as it can be a significant security risk.

Not necessarily at all and a huge security risk.
