DMZ
Since some applications are not compatible with NAT, the Router supports use of a DMZ IP address for a single host on the LAN. This IP address is
not protected by NAT and will therefore be visible to agents on the Internet with the right type of software. Keep in mind that any client PC in the
DMZ will be exposed to various types of security risks. If you use the DMZ, take measures (such as client-based virus protection) to protect the
remaining client PCs on your LAN from possible contamination through the DMZ.
To access the DMZ setting window, click on the DMZ button under the ADVANCED tab.
The DSL Router will forward IP packets from the WAN that do not
belong to any of the applications configured in the Port
Forwarding table to the DMZ host computer.
Enter the computer's IP address and click Apply to activate the
DMZ host.
Clear the IP address field and click Apply to deactivate the DMZ
host.
