Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) Port
The Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) port permits two LAN networks instead of the currently available single LAN network. This feature will enable switch port 4 of the existing four 10/100 switch ports to be optionally used as a Layer 3 LAN port, thereby providing Cisco 830 series routers with one more 10-Mbps Layer 3 LAN port. The new LAN port can be used for DMZ purposes for public access to the customer's web and other servers that are accessible from the Internet. The existing LAN network ports will continue to be used for private internal traffic.
Typically the DMZ port is configured at a lower security level than the other LAN ports on the Cisco 830 series router.

Restrictions for Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) Port
•
The Ethernet 2 interface of the Cisco 830 series router should be used as a DMZ port for LAN only. Using Ethernet 2 interface for WAN is not supported.
•
Because the media-independent interface, which connects the router's LAN interface to the Marvel switch, operates only at 10 Mbps, inter-LAN routing speed between Ethernet 0 and Ethernet 2 interfaces will be limited to a maximum of 10 Mbps.
•
Because Ethernet 0 and Ethernet 2 interfaces share the same Tx/Rx rings, buffer pools, and communication controller, the output of some of the commands such as show controller and show buffers may be similar.
•
Because the Ethernet 2 interface uses the existing switch port 4, if switch port 4 is shut down by issuing a shutdown command inside the interface fastethernet 4 command, this action will operationally shut down the Ethernet 2 interface.
•
The DMZ interface will reuse the existing Tx/Rx Activity LEDs of the Ethernet 0 interface. There will not be any link LED for the Ethernet 2 interface. When the Ethernet 2 interface is enabled, the Link LED of switch port 4 can be monitored to check whether the line protocol is up.
•
The MAC address for the Ethernet 2 interface will be same as that for the Ethernet 0 interface.
Information About Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) Port
To configure the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) Port feature, you should understand the following concepts:
DMZ Networks
A DMZ network enables Internet users to access a company's public servers, including Web and File Transfer Protocol (FTP) servers, while maintaining security for the company's private LAN.
