DMZ
Use this screen to configure your network’s Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).
NOTE: Only one device can be on the DMZ at a time.
DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) allows a selected device to bypass firewall functions and allows unrestricted access from the Internet. If a local client cannot properly run an Internet application behind a NAT firewall, that client can be set up with unrestricted bidirectional Internet access by setting the client up as a DMZ host. Enabled/Disabled: This field can only be edited if “DMZ” is enabled.
