DMZ Settings

A DMZ (demilitarized zone) is a computer host or small network inserted as ‘neutral
territory’ between a private LAN and the Internet. It prevents outside users from
getting direct access to LAN computers while still being able to access services
hosted on the designated DMZ Computer.

When using NAPT to share your internet connection, LAN computers will still be able
to access the Internet when the DMZ host is enabled. Any direct communication
to the WAN port of your Modem that is not a reply to the original NAPT request is
forwarded to the DMZ host.
