PC Configuration
DMZ
Enable DMZ…
Use this to enable the DMZ feature as required.
•
The "DMZ" PC will receive all "Unknown" connections
and data. This feature is normally used with applications
which do not usually work when behind a Firewall.
•
The DMZ PC is effectively outside the Firewall, making it
more vulnerable to attacks. For this reason, you should only
enable the DMZ feature when required.
•
If Enabled, you must select the PC to be used as the "DMZ"
PC.
DMZ PC
If the DMZ feature is enabled, you must select a PC. If the PC
uses a fixed IP address, and is not in the list, you can add it
using the "PC Database" menu option.
MTU
MTU size
MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) determines the size of
network packets. This value should only be changed if advised
to do so by Technical Support.
•
Enter a value between 1 and 1500.
•
This device will still auto-negotiate with the remote server,
to set the MTU size. The smaller of the 2 values (auto-
negotiated, or entered here) will be used.
•
For direct connections (not PPPoE or PPTP), the MTU
used is always 1500.
