DMZ If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly
from behind the firewall, you can open the client up to unrestricted
two-way Internet access. This may be necessary if the NAT feature is
causing problems with an application such as a game or video
conferencing application.
CAUTION: Use this feature on a temporary basis. The computer in the
DMZ is not protected from hacker attacks.
