Setup > DMZ Host
The DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) Host feature allows one
local user to be exposed to the Internet for use of a
special-purpose service such as Internet gaming or
videoconferencing. Although Port Range Forwarding can
only forward ten ranges of ports maximum, DMZ hosting
forwards all the ports to one computer at the same time.

Setup > Forwarding
The
Forwarding
screen allows you to set up port range
forwarding and port triggering applications. Port range
forwarding can be used to set up public services or other
specialized Internet applications on your network, while
port triggering can be used to set up triggered ranges and
forwarded ranges for Internet applications.
Setup > Forwarding
Forwarding
Port Range Forwarding
Port forwarding can be used to set up public services on
your network. When users from the Internet make certain
requests on your network, the Router can forward those
requests to computers equipped to handle the requests.
If, for example, you set the port number 80 (HTTP) to be
forwarded to IP address 192.168.1.2, then all HTTP requests
from outside users will be forwarded to 192.168.1.2.
NOTE:
You must disable the Router’s DHCP
function to use port forwarding.
You may use this function to establish a web server or FTP
server via an IP gateway. Make sure that you enter a valid
IP address. (You may need to establish a static IP address
in order to properly run an Internet server.) For added
security, Internet users will be able to communicate with
the server, but they will not actually be connected. The
packets will simply be forwarded through the Router.
Service
Select the Service you want.
IP Address
Enter the IP address of the server that you
want the Internet users to access.
