A DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone) host is a computer on your network that can be accessed from
the Internet regardless of NAT, port forwarding and IP filter settings. A DMZ is often used to
host Web servers, FTP servers etc that need to be accessible from the Internet.
Note
Setting up a DMZ has implications on the security of your
network. Set-up a DMZ only if you understand the consequences.
Port forwarding settings will override your DMZ setting.
