5.5.5. DMZ

A DeMilitarized Zone (DMZ) is a network off one of the LAN ports that
acts as a kind of buffer between the external (public Internet) network
and your secure network on the other LAN interface. The DMZ gives
access to services required from both the external network and the
secure network. The services are typically HTTP/FTP (Web) servers
for public access, an HTTP/FTP proxy server, an SMTP server and a
News (proxy) server. Mail servers and News servers for internal use
are placed on the secure network. Through the use of access control
list and Firewall, you prohibit access from the Internet to your secure
network while still providing access to services on the DMZ.
