DMZ

One computer on your local network can be configured to allow unrestricted two-way communication with
servers or individual users on the Internet. This provides the ability to run programs that are incompatible with
firewalls.This feature is primarily used for gaming. This function is recommended for use only when you require
this special level of unrestricted access as it leaves your router and network exposed to the Internet with no
firewall protection.

To configure DMZ:

1. Click DMZ on the left navigation pane of the Router Information page. This displays the DMZ Configuration

page.

2. Select enable or disable to enable or disable DMZ Port.

3. If you selected enable, enter the IP Address and Subnet Mask of the DMZ port.

4. Click Apply.

5. Configure the DMZ DHCP server. To do this, click DMZ DHCP Configuration on the left navigation pane

to configure the DMZ DHCP server. This displays the DMZ DHCP Configuration page.
