4.10.3 DMZ Host

Overview
After a LAN computer is set to a DMZ host, this computer is not restricted when it communicates with the
Internet. For example, for some video conferences and online games, you can set computers under these
applications to DMZ hosts so that the video conferences and online games function more smoothly.
Click 『Virtual Server』>『DMZ Host』 to go to the configuration page.
Note

When a computer is set to a DMZ host, this computer is fully exposed to the extranet and the router firewall
does act on this host any more. Hackers may use the DMZ host to attack the local network. Do not use the
DMZ host function carelessly.

It is necessary to manually set the IP address of the Intranet computer as the DMZ host to a static IP address
to avoid failure of the DMZ function due to dynamic acquisition.

Security software, antivirus software, and system firewall may affect the DMZ host function. Disable them
temporarily when using this function. When you do not use the DMZ host function, you are recommended
to cancel DMZ settings and enable firewall, security software, and antivirus software.
