25
Q

(DMZ) DMZ stands for?

A

Demilitarized Zone

26
Q

(DMZ) The DMZ allows a designated computer on your network to be fully _______ to the internet.
It does this by the router forwarding all _____ at the ____ time to the designated ___ computer.

A

exposed, ports, same, DMZ

27
Q

(DMZ) While the computers on our internal LAN are protected ______ the firewall, the DMZ computer is _______ the firewall and is not _________.

A

inside, outside, protected

28
Q

(DMZ) The DMZ is typically used for _______ ________. So, if you set up a computer that you want to be accessed from the internet and you’re having trouble configuring the firewall and applications, you can simply bypass all ________ ________ and put the computer in the DMZ temporarily to ensure everything is working until you can pinpoint the _______ you are having, such as a firewall setting.

A

testing, purposes, firewall, security, problem

29
Q

(DMZ) It’s also important to note that the DMZ computer must be assigned a ______ __ _______ and not automatically from a DHCP server.

A

30
Q

(Port Forwarding) Another option on the configuration page is ____ forwarding.

A

port

31
Q

(Port Forwarding) On this page, you can customize ____ services for certain ____________.

A

port, applications

32
Q

(Port Forwarding) When a user sends these types of requests to your network from the internet, the router will _______ those requests to the appropriate ________.

A

forward, computer

33
Q

(Port Forwarding) For example, let’s say a friend of yours wants to access one of your computers in your home network using RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol), and as you know from an earlier lesson, RDP services use port 3389.
When your friend starts up their RDP service on their computer, they put in the public IP address of your router. Once that request hits your router, your router needs to know which computer on your network to forward that request to, so your friend can access the correct computer. That’s where port forwarding comes in. (PT.1)

A

example

34
Q

(Port Forwarding) On the port forwarding configuration page, you have to forward the RDP port to the correct computer. You type in the RDP port number, which is 3389, and then you have to point it to the IP address of the computer that you want your friend to access, which is 192.168.2.3.
Once that’s done, the router knows where to forward that request, and the connection is now complete. (PT.2)
