7. Firewall
7.1 DMZ
A De-Militarized Zone is used to provide Internet services without sacrificing unauthorized access
to its local private network. Typically, the DMZ host contains devices accessible to Internet traffic,
such as Web (HTTP) servers, FTP servers, SMTP (e-mail) servers and DNS servers. So that all
inbound packets will be redirected to the computer you set. Generally it is not recommended to
setup DMZ due to fully exposed the PC/server to the Internet, but for some application using
uncertain incoming ports such as Internet games, it is could be useful to setup DMZ for the
application.
