3.3.3 DMZ
If you have a local client PC that cannot run an Internet application (e.g. Games) properly from
behind the NAT firewall, then you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access
by defining a DMZ Host. The DMZ function allows you to re-direct all packets going to your
WAN port IP address to a particular IP address in your LAN.
Parameter Description
Enable DMZ Check/uncheck to enable/disable DMZ.
Public IP You can select “Dynamic IP” or “Static IP” here. If you select “Dynamic
IP”, you have to select an Internet connection session from drop down
menu; if you select “Static IP”, please input the IP address that you want
to map to a specific private IP address.
Client PC IP address Please input the private IP address that the Internet IP address will be
mapped to.
Computer Name Pull down the menu and all the computers connected to the router will be
listed here. You can easily select the computer name without checking

given a list of computers that are connected to your network.
