2.7.4 DMZ

If you have a local client PC that cannot run some specific 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 redirect all packets going to your WAN port IP
address to a particular IP address in your LAN. The difference between the
virtual server and the DMZ function is that the virtual server redirects a
particular service/Internet application to a particular LAN client/server, whereas
DMZ redirects all packets (regardless of services) going to your WAN IP
address to a particular LAN client/server.

Note: The priority of FTP/HTTP server in DMZ is higher than that in NAS.
