5.2 WAN/DMZ Conﬁguration

This section describes how to conﬁgure WAN/DMZ settings for the

WAN interface on the RX3042H that communicates with your ISP.

Youʼll learn to conﬁgure IP address, DHCP and DNS server for your

WAN in this section.

DMZ (short for demilitarized zone) is a host or a small network that

sits between a trusted internal network, such as a corporate private

LAN, and an untrusted external network, such as the Internet.

Typically, the DMZ contains devices accessible to the Internet

trafﬁc, such as Web servers, FTP servers, SMTP (e-mail) servers

and DNS servers. The DMZ contains no corporate confidential

information. In the event that the DMZ is compromised, no other

company information will be exposed.

Note: Only static IP connection mode is supported for DMZ.

5.2.1 WAN Connection Mode

Five modes of WAN connection are supported by the RX3042H –

static IP, dynamic IP, PPPoE (multi-session), PPPoE unnumbered,

and PPTP. You may select one of the WAN connection modes

required by your ISP from the Connection Mode drop-down list in

Network Setup Conﬁguration page as shown in Figure 5.2.
