DMZ Settings

The firewall supports virtual DMZ in single (LAN) port router models. (Virtual DMZ redirects traffic to a specified IP address rather than a physical port. Because this redirection is a logical application rather than physical, it is called “virtual DMZ.”) Using virtual DMZ, a single node on the LAN can be made “visible” to the WAN IP network. Any incoming network traffic not handled by port forwarding rules is automatically forwarded to an enabled DMZ node. Outbound traffic from the virtual DMZ node circumvents all firewall rules.
