7.4.3 DMZ
Figure 55 IP Address DMZ
The DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) feature allows you to specify one computer on your
network to be placed outside the firewall. DMZ can be used for connecting servers that
need to be accessible from the outside world. This may be necessary if the firewall is
causing problems with a particular application, such as a game or video conference
application.
DMZ can be configured when using the Modem in NAT mode; however, you will not be
able to access the WAN IP address of the Modem until an Ethernet device is connected
to the LAN port of the Modem. As in the prior example, the Modem will match ingress
packet VLAN ID with egress VLAN ID.
Use this feature on a temporary basis. The computer in the DMZ is not protected by the
firewall.
View and enable or disable the DMZ setting.
IP Address of Virtual DMZ Host: Enter the IP address of the DMZ host.
Select Apply to save the setting.
