5.2 WAN/DMZ Configuration
This section describes how to configure WAN/DMZ settings for the
WAN interface on the RX3042H that communicates with your ISP.
Youʼll learn to configure IP address, DHCP and DNS server for your
WAN in this section.
DMZ (short for demilitarized zone) is a host or a small network that
sits between a trusted internal network, such as a corporate private
LAN, and an untrusted external network, such as the Internet.
Typically, the DMZ contains devices accessible to the Internet
traffic, such as Web servers, FTP servers, SMTP (e-mail) servers
and DNS servers. The DMZ contains no corporate confidential
information. In the event that the DMZ is compromised, no other
company information will be exposed.
Note: Only static IP connection mode is supported for DMZ.

5.2.1 WAN Connection Mode

Five modes of WAN connection are supported by the RX3042H –
static IP, dynamic IP, PPPoE (multi-session), PPPoE unnumbered,
and PPTP. You may select one of the WAN connection modes
required by your ISP from the Connection Mode drop-down list in
Network Setup Configuration page as shown in Figure 5.2.
