6.6 DMZ Host
DMZ allows you to specify and expose one computer on your network that can be
accessed from outside (e.g. web server, SSH, or other remote access protocol).
In above topology, if you want to access the FTP server of PC1 on PC3, follow these steps:
1. Run the FTP server on PC1.
2. On PC2, log on Web Management and go to Main menu > Advanced > DMZ host.
3. Toggle on DMZ Host, enter the IP address of PC1 as the DMZ Host IP.
Note
Before using the DMZ host, you should assign a static IP address to the
designated server. Then enter this static IP address into the router as its
IP address.

Now PC1 as DMZ host can connect to PC3 on the internet for intercommunication by
using the WAN IP, which can be checked in Main menu > Advanced > Router Status.
6.7 Dynamic DNS
Dynamic DNS feature allows you to host a server (web, FTP, game server, and etc.) using a
fixed domain name (host name) instead of remembering the dynamic IP address which
might be changed from time to time.
To assign a fixed host or domain name to a dynamic internet IP address, follow these steps
below:
1. On Web Management, go to Main menu > Advanced > Dynamic DNS and toggle
on Dynamic DNS switch.
2. Select your DDNS service provider
NO-IP (www.noip.com)
or
DynDNS (www.dyn.com)
,
enter the username, password, host name (domain name).
3. Click Save to save the settings.
WARNING!
It is recommended to disable the DMZ host when it is not in use to avoid
potential safety risks.
