DMZ = Demilitarized Zone... It is not a made up word... it is an area outside of your firewall... we usually use this for setting up honeypot traps for idiots who want to try to hack into a network. Also a few servers sit outside the firewall in the DMZ for full access... I wouldn't suggest putting your PS3 in the DMZ as you could possibly end up susceptible to DoS (Denial of Service) attacks. The DMZ exists between your Modem (connection to your ISP, regardless of who they are or what type it is) and the Switch half of your Router gear (the other ports that you plug your computer, or other network gear into).

again... it is outside the firewall

Netmask: the term "Netmask" is most often associated with subnet masking. (For most home users your subnet mask is 255.255.255.0) it tells the network devices which messages to listen to and which to ignore. Those that are allowed "fall through" the mask (it ends up comparing binary values within the packet headers... yeah I know... this is pretty deep geekery... but i hate it when people throw around buzzwords... like a lizard puffing up a dewlap trying to look impressive)

Netmask is a static-ip feature

ONCE again though... DMZ is made up....

Sorry for the delay, of my response -- I just wanted to see how many sites started to start using DMZ.

But your lil, theory of DMZ.... See there is an actual name for those " it is an area outside of your firewall" as you call them.

They are called, SWITCHES. Switches are those nodes that direct traffic outside your firewall. Many spoofers use proxies to attempt to make their proxy look like their host.

But it is really easy to exempt them and find actual DNS info. Proxy servers, are often used to try to spoof connectivity, but those who use them... Often do not know what an PROXY-server is actually for.

Proxy servers, are often used to try to spoof connectivity, but those who use them... Often do not know what an PROXY-server is actually for. Really DMZ made up funny that as that is exactly where I put my public facing equipment.. "In computer security, a DMZ (sometimes referred to as a perimeter network) is a physical or logical subnetwork that contains and exposes an organization's external-facing services to a larger untrusted network, usually the Internet. The purpose of a DMZ is to add an additional layer of security to an organization's local area network (LAN); an external attacker only has access to equipment in the DMZ, rather than any other part of the network. The name is derived from the term "demilitarized zone", an area between nation states in which military action is not permitted." From wikipedia as I can not be bothered to explain it.
