Select this box to designate the selected computer or gaming device as the gaming DMZ host. For more information, see Configuring a Gaming DMZ Host”. This can be useful if you have difficulties running certain applications; typically gaming applications.

The gaming DMZ host is a computer with a reserved IP address designated as the default DMZ host. Only one gaming DMZ host can be active at once.

The gaming DMZ host is not protected by the firewall. It is open to communication or hacking from any computer on the Internet. Consider carefully before configuring a computer to be in the DMZ.

The benefit of using a gaming DMZ host instead of a NAT passthrough host is that a gaming DMZ host does not require a public IP address as does a NAT passthrough host. If the application requires a public IP address, configure the computer for NAT passthrough on the Gateway > LAN — nat config Page.
