how many IPs are provided by your ISP for current VC.

Note:
For VCs with single IP, they share the same DMZ and Virtual servers; for VCs with multiple IPs,
each VC can set DMZ and Virtual servers. Furthermore, for VCs with multiple IPs, they can define
the Address Mapping rules; for VCs with single IP, since they have only one IP, there is no need
to individually define the Address Mapping rule.

vanced Setup→NAT→DMZ” in Figure 4-22, you can configure the DMZ host in the
