To put a computer in the DMZ, enter its LAN IP address in the "Private
IP" field and click "Apply Changes" for the change to take effect.
Blocking an ICMP Ping
Computer hackers use what is known as "pinging" to find potential
victims on the Internet. By pinging a specific IP address and
receiving a response from the IP address, a hacker can determine
that something of interest might be there. The Router can be set
up so it will not respond to an ICMP ping from the outside. This
heightens the level of security of your Router.

To turn off the ping response, select "Block ICMP Ping"
and click
"Apply Changes". The Router will not respond to an ICMP Ping.
