Firewall

5-11

DMZ

If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly from behind

the NAT firewall, you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way internet access

by defining a virtual-DMZ (virtual-demilitarized-zone) host.

Figure 5-11 DMZ Settings

Enable – Enables the feature. (Default: Disabled)

IP Address of Virtual DMZ Host – Specifies the IP address of the virtual DMZ host.

(Range: 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254; Default: 0.0.0.0)

Note: Adding a host to the DMZ may expose your local network to a variety of security

risks, so only use this option as a last resort.

Firewall

The RG230 provides extensive firewall protection by restricting connection

parameters to limit the risk of intrusion and defending against a wide array of

common hacker attacks. You can also block access to the Internet from clients on

the local network based on IP addresses and TCP/UDP port numbers, or specific

MAC addresses.

Figure 5-12 Firewall Setting

Enable – Enables the feature.

Disable – Disables the feature. (This is the default.)
