WAN IP address: 10.0.0.1 with subnet 255.0.0.0
DMZ IP address: 192.168.10.1 with subnet 255.255.255.0
LAN IP address: 192.168.1.1 with subnet 255.255.255.0

Configuring and Enabling the DMZ Port
The
The DMZ port feature is also helpful when using some online games and videoconferencing applications that are incompatible with NAT. The VPN firewall is programmed to recognize some of these applications and to work properly with them, but there are other applications that may not function well. In some cases, local PCs can run the application properly if those PCs are used on the DMZ port.
A separate firewall security profile is provided for the DMZ port that is hardware independent of the standard firewall security used for the LAN.
