9.2 DMZ Host
A home router DMZ (demilitarized zone) host is a host on the internal network that has all
UDP and TCP ports open and exposed, except for those ports that have been forwarded.
This is used as a simple method to forward all ports to another NAT device or firewall. The
purpose of a DMZ is to add an additional layer of security to an organization's local area
network (LAN): an external network node can access only what is exposed in the DMZ,
while the rest of the organization's network is firewalled.
The M6 DMZ host solves issues where the external net work cannot access the internal
network server after installing a firewall and sets up a buffer between the non -secured
system and the secured system. The DMZ is typically a filtered subnet that establishes a
safe zone between the internal and external net works and allows you to only expose one
device to the internet.
DMZ host features can be accessed through the Mercku App or Portal.
