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� Use this feature on a temporary basis� The
computer in the DMZ is not protected from hacker attacks. To put
a computer in the DMZ, enter the last digits of its LAN IP address in
the “Static IP” field and click “Apply Changes” for the change to take
effect� If you have only one public (WAN) IP address, then you can
leave the public IP to “0�0�0�0”� If you are using multiple public (WAN)
IP addresses, it is possible to select which public (WAN) IP address the
DMZ host will be directed to� Type in the public (WAN) IP address you
wish the DMZ host to direct to, enter the last two digits of the IP address
of the DMZ host computer, and click “Apply Changes”�
Administrator Password
The Router ships with NO password entered� If you wish to add a
password for more security, you can set a password from your Router’s
web-based user interface� Keep your password in a safe place as you
will need this password if you need to log into the Router in the future� It
is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you set a password if you plan to
use the remote management feature�
The login time-out option allows you to set the period of time that you
can be logged into the Router’s advanced setup interface� The timer
starts when there has been no activity� For example, you have made
some changes in the advanced setup interface, then left your computer
alone without clicking “Logout”�
Assuming the time-out is set to 10 minutes, then 10 minutes after you
leave, the login session will expire� You will have to log into the Router
again to make any more changes� The login time-out option is for
security purposes and the default is set to 10 minutes� Note, only one
computer can be logged into the Router’s advanced setup interface at
a time�
