port for connecting servers that are exposed to the
public Internet for accesses. The
DMZ
port is assigned an IP address of 10.1.1.254
with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 by default. Note that the DMZ IP address is on
the 10.1.1.x subnet while the LAN ports are on the 192.168.1.x subnet by default.

your DMZ must have a DHCP client enabled to get their network address
information from the MH-5000.
