Setting a static IP address
Typically, the computers on your network are set to obtain an IP address 
dynamically (using the DHCP server function of the router) whenever they 
contact your local network. However, in certain cases, such as DMZ hosting or 
port forwarding, you have to assign a static IP address to a computer so that 
its address remains constant and it can be contacted at the same address over 
time.
