3.4.7.3. DMZ
Go to “Advanced→Forwarding→DMZ”, and then you can view and configure DMZ host in this
page. The DMZ host feature allows one local host to be exposed to the Internet for a
special-purpose service such as Internet gaming or videoconferencing. The router forwards
packets of all services to the DMZ host. Any PC whose port is being forwarded must have its
DHCP client function disabled and should have a new static IP Address assigned to it because
its IP Address may be changed when using the DHCP function.

To assign a computer or server to be a DMZ server:
1. Select the Enable radio button.
2. Enter the IP address of a local PC that is set to be DMZ host in the DMZ Host IP Address
field.
3. Click the Save button.
3.4.7.4. UPnP
Go to “Advanced→Forwarding→UPnP”, and then you can view the information about UPnP
in the screen shown in Figure 3-40. The Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) feature allows the
devices, such as Internet computers, to access the local host resources or devices as needed.
UPnP devices can be automatically discovered by the UPnP service application on the LAN.
