TRENDnet User's Guide that makes all the ports and services available on the WAN/Internet side of the router and forwards them to a single IP address (computer or network device) on your network. The DMZ feature is an easy way of allowing access from the Internet however, it is a very insecure technology and will open local area network to greater threats from Internet attacks. It is strongly recommended to use Virtual Server (also called port forwarding, see "Virtual Server" on page 35) to allow access to your computers or network devices from the Internet. 1. Make sure to configure your computer or network device to use a static IP address or you can use the DHCP reservation feature (see "Set up DHCP reservation" on page 53). 2. Log into your router management page (see "Access your router management page" on page 22). 3. Click on Advanced, click on Firewall, and click on DMZ. 4. Select Enable next to DMZ. 5. In DMZ Host IP Address enter the IP address you assigned to the computer or network device to expose to the Internet. TEW-722BRM Since most ISPs constantly change your home IP address, to be able to access the Virtual Server port(s) from the Internet it is recommended to setup Dynamic DNS service (See DynDNS section). 1. Log into your router management page (see "Access your router management page" on page 22). 2. Click on Advanced, click on NAT, and click on Virtual Server option and click Add. To simplify configuration, there is a list of commonly used pre-defined virtual server entries to modify by clicking the drop down menu under rule name, otherwise, you can choose to manually add a new virtual server. 3. Review the virtual server settings. Click Apply to save settings. 5. To save changes, click Apply. Note: If using ADSL WAN with multiple PVCs, click the DMZ Mode drop-down list to select Multi Mode which will allow you which PVC to assign the DMZ Host. Virtual Server Advanced > NAT > Virtual Server Virtual Server (also called port forwarding) allows you to define specific ports (used or required by a specific application) and forward them to a single IP address (a computer or device) on your network. Using this feature is more secure compared to using DMZ (see "DMZ" on page 35) in which DMZ forwards all ports instead of only specific ports used by an application. An example would be forwarding a port to an network/IP camera (typically on TRENDnet IP cameras use HTTP TCP port 80 for remote access web requests) on your network for to allow remote access to it. © Copyright 2014 TRENDnet.
