Firewall Settings
Enable or disable Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). This completely exposes
the client to threats over the Internet, and is not recommended in
ordinary situations.
If you enabled DMZ, enter the IP address of the client you wish to
expose, or use the drop-down menu to quickly select it.
Enabling Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) helps to prevent cyber
attacks by validating that the traffic passing through the session
conforms to the protocol.
Enable this feature to protect your network from certain kinds of
“spoofing” attacks.
Enable or disable IPv6 simple security.
