6.5.4 DMZ

DMZ (De-Militarized Zone) Host is a host without the protection of the router’s firewall. It allows a computer to be exposed to unrestricted two-way communication with the Internet. You should only use this feature when the Port Forwarding function fails to make an application work.

Warning: Setting your computer as a DMZ host exposes it to various security vulnerabilities. This feature should be used only when needed.

DMZ: Select to enable or disable DMZ.

Source IP Address: Select any source IP address or specify a source IP address.

Destination: Specify the Destination by its IP Address or MAC Address.

Note: Any DMZ host should have a new static IP address assigned to it because its IP address may change when using the DHCP function.

Click Apply to save the setting.
