ProSafe Gigabit 8 Port VPN Firewall FVS318G Reference Manual

To expose one of the PCs on your LAN or DMZ as this host:

1.Create an inbound rule that allows all protocols.

2.Place the rule below all other inbound rules.

Note: For security, NETGEAR strongly recommends that you avoid creating an exposed host. When a computer is designated as the exposed host, it loses much of the protection of the firewall and is exposed to many exploits from the Internet. If compromised, the computer can be used to attack your network.

1.Select Any and Allow Always (or Allow by Schedule)

2.Place rule below all other inbound rules
