    You can set up a client in your local network as a DMZ host. Your device then forwards all incoming data traffic from the Internet to this client.

As the exposed host, the local client is directly visible to the Internet and therefore particularly vulnerable to attacks (for example, hacker attacks). Enable this function only when necessary (for example, to operate a Web server) and when other functions (for example, port forwarding) are inadequate. In this case, you should take appropriate measures for the clients concerned. Note: Only one PC per public IP address can be setup as an exposed host.
