III‐3‐6‐3. DMZ

A Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) is an isolated area in your local network where private IP addresses are mapped to specified internet IP addresses, allowing unrestricted access to the private IP addresses but not to the wider local network.

You can define a virtual DMZ host here. This is useful for example, if a network client PC cannot run an application properly from behind an NAT firewall, since it opens the client up to unrestricted two‐way access.

Enable DMZ	Check/uncheck the box to enable/disable the
	device’s DMZ function.
Public	Select “Dynamic IP” or “Static IP” here.
	For “Dynamic IP” select an Internet connection
	session from dropdown menu.
	For “Static IP” enter the IP address that you
	want to map to a specific private IP address.
Client PC	Enter the private IP address that the internet IP
	address will be mapped to.
Computer Name	Select a computer name from the list and click
	“<<” to enter its IP address into the “Client PC”
	field (above).
Add	Click “Add” to add the client to the “Current
	DMZ Table”.
Clear	Clear all values.
