DMZ Port
The DMZ Setup screen allows you to set up the DMZ port. Specifying a Default DMZ server allows you to set up a computer or server that is available to anyone on the Internet for services that you haven't defined.
The default setting of the rules is that the DMZ port and both inbound and outbound traffic is disabled. Enabling the DMZ port increases the traffic through the WAN port.
The VPN firewall makes LAN port 8 a dedicated hardware DMZ port when DMZ is enabled (see “VPN Firewall Front and Rear Panels” on page
See “Configuring and Enabling the DMZ Port” on page
VPN Tunnels
The VPN firewall permits up to 200 VPN tunnels at a time. Each tunnel requires extensive processing for encryption and authentication.
See Chapter 5, “Virtual Private Networking” for the procedure on how to use this feature.
Using QoS to Shift the Traffic Mix
The QoS priority settings determine the priority and, in turn, the quality of service for the traffic passing through the VPN firewall. The QoS is set individually for each service.
•You can accept the default priority defined by the service itself by not changing its QoS setting.
•You can change the priority to a higher or lower value than its default setting to give the service higher or lower priority than it otherwise would have.
The QoS priority settings conform to the IEEE
You will not change the WAN bandwidth used by changing any QoS priority settings. But you will change the mix of traffic through the WAN port by granting some services a higher priority than others. The quality of a service is impacted by its QoS setting, however.
