2.7.4 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. The
difference between the virtual server and the DMZ function is that the virtual server re-directs a particular service/Internet
application to a particular LAN client/server, whereas DMZ re-directs 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.

Parameters

properly.
