DMZ
This feature, if enabled, allows the DMZ computer on your LAN to be exposed to all users on
the Internet.
•
This allows almost any application to be used on the "DMZ PC".
•
The "DMZ PC" will receive all "Unknown" connections and data.
•
If the DMZ feature is enabled, you must select the PC to be used as the "DMZ PC".
Figure 55: Advanced Internet Screen
The "DMZ PC" is effectively outside the Firewall,
making it more vulnerable to attacks. For this reason,
you should only enable the DMZ feature when required.
