Virtual DMZ
Figure 41 Virtual Servers Screen
DMZ (De-Militarized Zone) Host is a computer without the protection of the
firewall. This feature allows a single computer to be exposed to unrestricted 2-way
communication from outside of your network. This feature should be used only if
the Virtual Server or Special Applications options do not provide the level of access
needed for certain applications.
To configure one of your computers as a DMZ host, enter the last digit(s) of the IP
address of the computer in the IP Address of DMZ Host text box, and then click
the SAVE button.
Virtual Server
Activating and configuring a virtual server allows one or more of the computers on
your network to function as an Internet service host. For example, one of your
computers could be configured as an FTP host, allowing others outside of your
office network to download files of your choosing. Or, if you have created a Web
site, you can configure one of your computers as a Web server, so that others can
view your Web site.
To configure a virtual server:
1 Click on the New button on the right side of the screen to open the Virtual Server
Settings dialogue box. (Figure 42)
2 Enter the last digit(s) of the IP address of the computer in the Server IP Address
text box.
3 Select the Service from the pull-down list. (Figure 42)
