DMZ Host

System > WAN Setup
You may want to expose a specific computer or device on your network to the Internet
to allow anyone to access it. Your router includes the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) feature
that makes all the ports and services available on the WAN/Internet side of the router
and forwards all ports to a single IP address (computer or network device) on your
network. The DMZ feature is an easy way of allowing access from the Internet however,
it is a very insecure method and will open your local area network to greater threats
from Internet attacks. It is recommended to use
specific ports/services only. If using multi-WAN mode, you can assign a DMZ host for
each WAN interface.
1. Log into your router management page (see
on page 7).
2. Click on System, click on WAN Setup, and next to the WAN interface you would like
to assign a DMZ host, click Edit.
