Virtual Server – DMZ Host
In computer networks, a DMZ (demilitarized zone) is a computer host or
small network inserted as a "neutral zone" between a company's private
network and the outside public network. It prevents outside users from
getting direct access to a server that has company data. A DMZ is an
optional and more secure approach to a firewall and effectively acts as a
proxy server as well.
Once this feature is enabled, you must specify an IP address. It allows
unrestricted 2-way communication between the specified IP address and
other Internet users or Servers.
This allows almost any application to be used on the specified IP
address.
The specified IP address will receive all "Unknown" connections and
data.
The DMZ feature only works when the NAT function is enabled.
