DMZ
The DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone) feature allows a LAN client to have unrestricted two-
way access to the Internet by bypassing the router’s firewall. Useful for applications like
Internet gaming, video conferencing, or VPN connections, a DMZ will redirect all
packets going to your WAN port IP address to a specific LAN client/server while
allowing the rest of your network to remain protected.
When you are satisfied with your DMZ settings, click Apply.
Parameter
Description
Enable DMZ
Select Yes to enable your DMZ. If you select No,
none of the rules you enter below will be applied.
Note:
If there is a conflict between the Virtual
Server (see page 27) and the DMZ settings, the
Virtual Server will have priority.
Public IP Address
Enter the IP address of your WAN port or a Public
IP address given to you by your ISP.
Client IP Address
Enter the IP address of the LAN client/host that
will receive all the packets intended for the Public
IP address listed above.
Note:
You need to give your LAN PC clients a
fixed/static IP address outside the specified pool
(see page 25) for the DMZ to work properly.
