DMZ: A DMZ (De-Militarized Zone) is added between a protected
network and an external network, in order to provide an additional layer
of security. When there is a suspected packet coming from WAN, the
firewall will forward this packet to the DMZ host.
DMZ Host IP: The IP address of the DMZ host at LAN side.
DHCP Relay: If it is enabled, the DHCP requests from local PCs will
forward to the DHCP server runs on WAN side. To have this function
working properly, please disable the NAT to run on router mode only,
disable the DHCP server on the LAN port, and make sure the routing
table has the correct routing entry.
DHCP Target IP: The DHCP server runs on WAN side.
IGMP Proxy: Here is the global setting for IGMP Proxy. If it is enabled,
then the enabled IGMP Proxy on WAN PVCs will be working. Otherwise,
no WAN PVC can have IGMP Proxy working on it.
PPP reconnect on WAN access:
If it is enabled, the PPP session will be automatically established when
there is a packet wants to go out to the WAN.
Q: What is the difference between PPP reconnect on WAN access
and the Automatic Reconnect?
A: Some ISPs  terminated the PPP session  due to the inactivity.
For the PPP reconnect on WAN access, the PPP will be automatically
reconnected when an URL is entered in the browser (packet interested in
going out to  the WAN).
For the Automatic Reconnect, it will reconnect the PPP session whenever it
is terminated by ISP.
PPP Half Bridge Mode:
When the PPP Half Bridge is enabled, only one PC is able to access
the Internet, and the DHCP server will duplicate the WAN IP address from
the ISP to the local client PC. Only the PC with the WAN IP address can
access the Internet.
