Inbound traffic from the Internet is usually discarded and routed to a specific client only if port forwarding or a port trigger has been configured on the network. In a DMZ configuration, one network client receives all inbound packets. Setting up DMZ on a network is useful when you need incoming ports open or you want to host a domain, web, or e-mail server. CAUTION: Opening all the ports on a client to the Internet makes the network vulnerable to outside attacks. Please be aware of the security risks involved in using DMZ. To set up DMZ: 1. From the navigation panel, go to Advanced Settings > WAN > DMZ tab. 2. Configure the setting below. When done, click Apply. • IP address of Exposed Station: Key in the client's LAN IP address that will provide the DMZ service and be exposed on the Internet.
