DMZ host

The DMZ Host setting screen allows one local user to be exposed to the Internet for a special purpose such as Internet gaming or video conferencing. Whereas IP Forwarding can only forward a maximum of ten ranges of ports, DMZ hosting forwards all the ports for one PC simultaneously.

Warning: This feature disables any firewall protection for the local DMZ host.

Select the DMZ tab of the Expert Interface to view the DMZ HOST screen.
