2.8.4 DMZ

If you have a local client PC that cannot run some specific Internet
application (e.g. Games) properly from behind the NAT firewall, then
you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access by
defining a DMZ Host. The DMZ function allows you to redirect all
packets going to your WAN port IP address to a particular IP address in
your LAN. The difference between the virtual server and the DMZ
function is that the virtual server redirects a particular service/Internet
application to a particular LAN client/server, whereas DMZ redirects all
packets (regardless of services) going to your WAN IP address to a
particular LAN client/server.

Parameters

Description

Enable DMZ

Enable/disable DMZ
Note: If there’s confliction between the virtual server
and the DMZ setting, the virtual server function will
have priority over the DMZ function.

Public IP

Address

The IP address of the WAN port or any other public
IP addresses assigned to you by your ISP.

Client PC IP

Address

Input the IP address of a particular host in your

LAN that will receive all the packets originally
going to the WAN port/Public IP address listed
above.

Note: You need to give your LAN PC clients a
fixed/static IP address for DMZ to work properly.
