2.22.3 Make Applications Free from Port Restriction by DMZ
When a computer is set to be a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host in the local network, it is totally exposed to the Internet,
which can realize the unlimited bidirectional communication between internal hosts and external hosts. The DMZ host
becomes a virtual server with all ports opened. When you are not clear about which ports to open in some special
applications, like IP camera and database software, you can set the computer to be a DMZ host.
Note: DMZ is more applicable in the situation that users are not clear about which ports to open. When it is enabled,
the DMZ host is totally exposed to the Internet, which may bring some potential safety hazard. If DMZ is not in use,
please disable it in time.
I want to:
Make the home computer join the Internet online game without port restriction.
For example: Due to some port restriction, when playing the online games, you can login normally
but cannot join a team with other players. To solve this problem, set your computer as a DMZ with
all ports opened.
