your URL/Blocking list.

DMZ Host (Demilitarized Zone)
If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly from behind the

firewall, then you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access. Enter the IP
address of a DMZ host to this screen. Adding a client to the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) may

expose your local network to a variety of security risks, so only use this option as a last resort.

To access the DMZ configuration page, on the Side Navigation bar, click on [Firewall] link and
then click on the [DMZ] link.

To enable this option, click the [Enable DMZ Host] checkbox.

To configure a DMZ host, Enter in the LAN IP Address of the PC on your network in the input
fields.
