Reference Manual for the 54 Mbps Wireless ADSL Firewall Router DG834G
7-2 Advanced Configuration
202-10006-01
Incoming traffic from the Internet is normally discarded by the router unless the traffic is a
response to one of your local computers or a service that you have configured in the Ports menu.
Instead of discarding this traffic, you can have it forwarded to one computer on your network. This
computer is called the Default DMZ Server.
How to Configure a Default DMZ Server
To assign a computer or server to be a Default DMZ server, follow these steps:
1. Log in to the router at its default LAN address of http://192.168.0.1 with its default User Name
of admin, default password of password, or using whatever Password and LAN address you
have chosen for the router.
2. From the Main Menu, under Advanced, click the WAN Setup link to view the page shown in
Figure 7-1
Figure 7-1: WAN Setup Page
3.
Click Default DMZ Server.
4. Type the IP address for that server.
5. Click Apply to save your changes.
Note: For security reasons, you should avoid using the Default DMZ Server feature.
When a computer is designated as the Default DMZ Server, it loses much of the
protection of the firewall, and is exposed to many exploits from the Internet. If
compromised, the computer can be used to attack your network.
