Section 3 - Configuration
If an application has trouble working from behind the router,
you can expose one computer to the Internet and run the
application on that computer.
Note:
Placing a computer in the DMZ may expose that
computer to a variety of security risks. Use of this option is only
recommended as a last resort.
Specify the IP address of the computer on the LAN that you want
to have unrestricted Internet communication. If this computer
obtains its IP address automatically using DHCP, be sure to make
a static reservation on the
Setup > Network Settings
page so
that the IP address of the DMZ machine does not change.
