CONFIGURING THE DMZ

If you have a client PC that cannot run Internet applications correctly from behind the router, then you can set the client up for unrestricted Internet access. Unrestricted access allows a computer to be exposed to the Internet (useful for gaming). Enter the IP address of the internal computer that will be the DMZ host. Adding a client to the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) may expose your local network to a variety of security risks, so only use this option as a last resort.
