DMZ 

 

If  you  have  a  client  PC  that  cannot  run  an  Internet  application  (e.g.  Games) 

properly  from  behind  the  NAT  firewall,  then  you  can  open  up  the  firewall 

restrictions  to  unrestricted  two-way  Internet  access  by  defining  a  DMZ  Host. 

The  DMZ  function  allows  you  to  re-direct  all  packets  going  to  your  WAN  port 

IP address to a particular IP address in your LAN. The difference between the 

virtual  server  and  the  DMZ  function  is  that  the  virtual  server  re-directs  a 

particular service/Internet application (e.g. FTP, websites) to a particular LAN 

client/server,  whereas  DMZ  re-directs  all  packets  (regardless  of  services) 

going to your WAN IP address to a particular LAN client/server.

Host

 Fill in the IP address of a particular host in your LAN that will receive all 

the packets originally going to the WAN port/Public IP address above.
