The Virtual Server Screen
The
Virtual Server
screen allows you to manage the virtual server settings of
the GN-BR32L-RH. There are two virtual server options: 1. The router has
only one IP address or, 2. The router has multiple IP addresses (8 or 16 in most
instances). If you have only one IP address click on the
PPPoE/DHCP/Static
tab. If you have multiple IP addresses, click on the
PPPoE Unnumber
tab. The
DMZ Support tab allows you to enable a Demilitarized Zone (Zone) on your
network.
The DMZ Setting Tab
With a firewall setup, it sometimes necessary to place some clients (e.g.
Internet games, video conferencing, or VPN connections) outside of the firewall
while leaving the others protected. You can do this using a Demilitarized Zone.
The DMZ feature allows you to specify the IP address of the computer that will
be placed outside the firewall of your network. Enter the IP Address of your
computer (e.g. 192.168.1.2) into the LAN IP Address field and click the
Submit
button.
Note: DMZ servers pose a security risk. A computer
designated as the default DMZ server loses much of the
protection of the firewall, and is exposed to exploits from the
Internet. If compromised, the DMZ server can be used to
attack your network.
