Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) Port

I have used it a couple of times and it all works OK.

I was initially concerned (since it is called a DMZ port) that there would be onerous restrictions in its use but there are no problems with it at all. We use it for business users with a VPN who also want to have a family computer at home.
