3.3.3 DMZ

The "DMZ" PC will receive all "Unknown" connections and data. This feature is

normally used with applications which do not usually work when behind a Firewall.

The DMZ PC is effectively outside the Firewall, making it more vulnerable to attacks.

For this reason, you should only enable the DMZ feature when required.

If Enabled, you must select the PC to be used as the "DMZ" PC.

Select the desired option

Disabled:DMZ is disabled.

Enabled:The selected PC will receive any "unknown" connections and data, as

described above.

3.3.4 Multi-DMZ

This feature is only available if your ISP has allocated you multiple Internet IP addresses.

If you have multiple Internet IP addresses, you can assign one DMZ PC for each Internet IP

address.

The "DMZ PC" will receive all "Unknown" connections and data received for the

Internet IP address associated with it.
