When a local computer is designated as the DMZ host, it loses firewall protection
provided by the Router. The DMZ host can be accessed through all the WAN
interfaces.

Static Route
This section describes the
Advanced > Static Route
page, where you can configure
and view static routes.
7.2.1 Introduction to Static Route
A static route is manually configured by the network administrator, which is stored in a
routing table. By using routing table, the Router can select an optimal transmission path
for each received packet, and forward the packet to the destination site effectively. The
proper usage of static routes can not only improve the network performance, but also
achieve other benefits, such as traffic control, provide a secure network environment.
The disadvantage of using static routes is that they cannot dynamically adapt to the
current operational state of the network. When there is a change in the network or a failure
occurs, some static routes will be unreachable. In this case, the network administrator
should update the static routes manually.
