WAN Setup

You can use this screen to set the gateway to respond to a Ping, specify a DMZ Address, and view or change the MTU Size setting.

Figure 4-8

•Respond to Ping on WAN: If you want the gateway to respond to a Ping from the Internet, select this check box and then click Apply. This can be used as a diagnostic tool.

•DMZ Address: Specifying a DMZ Address allows you to set up a PC that is available to anyone on the Internet for services that you have not defined. There are security issues with doing this, so only do this if you are willing to risk open access. If you do not assign a DMZ address, the gateway discards any undefined service request.

—To assign a DMZ Address, type the value in the DMZ Address field and then click Apply.

—To remove a DMZ Address, type 0 in the DMZ Address field, and then click Apply.
