particular public ports to a specific private IP address/port of host resides in the private
network.
DMZ Host allows a defined internal user to be totally exposed to the Internet, which
usually facilitates special applications such as Netmeeting or Internet Games that are

networked computer is designated as the DMZ Server, it is exempted from the protection
of firewall and is exposed to many exploits from the Internet.
