3.1.5 DMZ
DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) is a network which has fewer default firewall restrictions than the LAN does.
The DMZ physical port can work in Public mode and Private mode.
In Public mode, the DMZ port allows the Hosts in DMZ to directly communicate with Internet via routing mode using public IP address. However, the Hosts in DMZ cannot access LAN.

In Private mode, the DMZ port allows the Hosts in DMZ to access Internet via NAT mode which translates private IP addresses within DMZ to public IP addresses for transport over Internet. The Hosts in DMZ can directly communicate with LAN using the private IP addresses within the different subnet of LAN.
