Configuring a DMZ host connection
• Connect to "Router 1" on your network (referred
t
o as "Possible 1st Router" in the Auto Port
Forwarding Wizard). Obtain the IP address of
Router 1. Usually this can be found in the "Status"
section of your router menu. The IP should begin
with "192.168...."This IP address is your DMZ IP.
• Enter the IP address obtained from Router 1 into
the DMZ section of Router 2.
• Once you have configured Router 2 with a DMZ
connection, run the Auto Port Forwarding Wizard
to begin auto port forwarding to Router 1.
• Consult your router’s owner’s manual for details
on configuring DMZ settings.
Example
DMZ stands for Demilitarized Zone. Enabling a DMZ
IP on your router enables one of the routers to pass
information onto the second router.
