Help - Multi DMZ

Help Index | Glossary

Overviews:

If you have only 1 WAN IP address, only the primary DMZ, on the "Internet" screen, can be used.
The "DMZ" PC will receive all "Unknown" connections and data. This feature is normally used with applications which do not usually work when behind a Firewall.
If an Internet application does not work, try using the "Special Applications" feature.
If it still does not work, then the DMZ feature should be used.
If your ISP has allocated you multiple WAN IP addresses, you can bind each IP address to a PC, using this screen.
- All incoming connections and data sent to the WAN IP address will be forwarded to the specified PC.
- All outgoing connections and data from the PC will be given the specified WAN IP address (rather than the default WAN IP address used by the primary DMZ.)
- All WAN IP addresses use the same Network Mask and Gateway, as specified for the default WAN IP address.

Configuration Data
Enable	Use this to enable each DMZ entry as required. The DMZ PC is effectively outside the Firewall, making it more vunerable to attacks. For this reason, you should only enable the DMZ feature when required. If Enabled, you must specify the WAN IP address, and select the PC to be used as the "DMZ" PC
WAN IP address	The multi-DMZ feature can only be used if your ISP has allocated additional (fixed) IP addresses to you. For each DMZ you have enabled, enter one of the IP addresses allocated by your ISP.
PC	For each DMZ which is enabled, you must select a PC in the list. If the PC uses a fixed IP address, and is not in the list, you can add it using the "PC Database" option on the Advanced Menu.
