Application (DMZ & Port Forwarding)
The DMZ feature allows you to specify one computer on your network to be placed
outside of the NAT firewall. This may be necessary if the NAT feature is causing
problems with an application, such as a game or video conferencing application. Use
this feature on a temporary basis, as the computer in the DMZ is not protected from
attacks by hackers.
The Port Forwarding function is used to forward incoming packets of specific TCP/IP
port from outside to the assigned PC. This function is useful if you have to use VoIP or
P2P applications, or have to operate HTTP or FTP servers from a PC in the internal
LAN.
