Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface
Enabling the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)
The DMZ feature allows you to specify one computer on your network
to be placed outside of the firewall. This may be necessary if the
firewall is causing problems with an application such as a game or
video conferencing application. Use this feature on a temporary basis.
The computer in the DMZ is NOT protected from hacker attacks.
Note:
If your ISP subscription provides you with additional public
(WAN) IP addresses, additional computers can be placed outside the
firewall provided each computer uses a different public (WAN) IP.
To put a computer in the DMZ, enter the last digits of its IP address in
the IP field and select "Enable". Click "Apply Changes" for the change
to take effect.
