7.1.4 Configure a DMZ Host
Introduction
The MediaAccess Gateway allows you to configure one local device as a De-Militarized Zone (DMZ) host. This means that:
None of the MediaAccess Gateway firewall rules will be applied to this device.
All traffic originating from the Internet will be forwarded to this devices unless there is a port forwarding rule defined for this
type of traffic. Port forwarding rules always have higher priority.
Use a reserved IP address for the DMZ host
Make sure that your DMZ host uses a fixed IP address. If not, the device might get a new IP address after some time through
DHCP and the port forwarding rule will no longer be applied to the device and another device may suddenly be acting as DMZ
host. For more information, see 7.2 Assigning a reserved IP to a device .
