Creating a Virtual Server or a
DMZ

Do I need to create a virtual server or DMZ?

By default, your modem uses NAT to hide your computers from
users on the Internet; however, there may be times when you want
to allow access by outside users to a computer on your network.
For instance, you would want to allow access if a computer in your
network is hosting Internet games or running a web server. For
more information about the Virtual Server/DMZ feature and the
differences between a virtual server and a DMZ, see page 77. For
information about setting up a Virtual Server or DMZ for gaming,
see

Setting Up the X6v for Online Gaming

on page 73.

Here is a picture of the Virtual Server/DMZ page:
