If you have a local client PC that cannot run an Internet application (e.g. Games) properly from
behind the NAT firewall, then you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access
by defining a DMZ Host. The DMZ function (see
Figure 26
) 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.
E. Firewall
Configuration
The Firewall selection of the On-Q Router provides an extensive array of firewall protection
capability by restricting connection parameters, thus limiting the risk of hacker attack, and
defending against a wide variety of common Internet attacks.
The Firewall Options selection screen (see
Figure 27
) enables the firewall to block common
hacker attacks, including Denial of Service, Ping of Death, Port Scan and Sync Flood.
If Internet
attacks occur the router can log the events.
