DMZ
Forwarding Rules >Miscellaneous
You may want to expose a specific computer or device on your network to the Internet
to allow anyone to access it. Your router includes the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) feature
that makes all the ports and services available on the WAN/Internet side of the router
and forwards them to a single IP address (computer or network device) on your
network. The DMZ feature is an easy way of allowing access from the Internet however,
it is a very
insecure
technology and will open local area network to greater threats from
Internet attacks.
