2.4.4 DMZ

If you have a local client PC that cannot run an Internet application (e.g. Games) properly from
behind the NAT firewall, then you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access
by defining a DMZ Host. The DMZ function allows you to re-direct all packets going to your WAN
port IP address to a particular IP address in your LAN. The difference between the virtual server
and the DMZ function is that the virtual server re-directs a particular service/Internet application
(e.g. FTP, websites) to a particular LAN client/server, whereas DMZ re-directs all packets
(regardless of services) going to your WAN IP address to a particular LAN client/server.
Parameters
Enable
Public IP
Private IP
You can now configure other advance sections or start using the router (with the advance settings
in place)
Description
You have to check this box to enable the DMZ
function.
Note: If there is a conflict between the Virtual
Server and the DMZ setting, then Virtual Server
function will have priority over the DMZ function.
The WAN IP address that a particular DMZ host in your
LAN will be mapped to.
Input the IP address of a particular host in your LAN that
will receive all the packets originally going to the WAN
port/Public IP address above.
Note: You need to give your LAN PC clients a
fixed/static IP address for DMZ to work properly.
