Open a device on your network to the Internet

DMZ

Configuration > Forwarding Rules > DMZ
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 them 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 also very insecure method.
It is strongly recommended to use virtual server (also called port forwarding, see
"Virtual Server" on page 62) instead, to allow access to your computers or network
devices from the Internet.
1. Make sure to configure your computer or network device to use a static IP address or
you can use the DHCP reservation feature (see "Set up DHCP reservation" on page 55).
2. Log into your router management page (see "Access your router management page"
on page 50).
3. Click on Configuration at the top of the page, click on Forwarding Rules, and click on
DMZ.
4. Next to IP Address of DMZ Host, enter the IP address (e.g. 192.168.10.250) you
assigned to the computer or network device to expose to the Internet and click Enabled.
6. To save changes, click Save at the bottom of the page.

Virtual Computers

If you have multiple static WAN/Internet IP addresses assigned by your ISP (Internet
Service Provider), you can map these WAN/Internet IP addresses to a local computer or
device on your network and expose these computers or devices on your network to the
Internet to allow anyone to access them. Your router includes the Virtual Computers
feature that makes all the ports and services available on the WAN/Internet IP side IP
address and forwards them to specified IP address (computers or network devices) on
your network. Using this feature can allow you to different computers or devices on
your network from the Internet using specific WAN/Internet IP addresses assigned by
your ISP. Note: First, verify if you have multiple static WAN/Internet IP addresses by your
ISP. The Virtual Computers feature requires multiple static WAN/Internet IP addresses.
Contact your ISP for details.
1. Make sure to configure your computer or network device to use a static IP address or
you can use the DHCP reservation feature (see "Set up DHCP reservation" on page 55).
