In [[computing]], some home routers ([[D-Link]]/[[Linksys]]/[[SMC]]/SOHO) refer to a '''DMZ host'''.


{{Redirect category shell|1=
These are pseudo [[Demilitarized zone (computing)|DMZ]]s, as they provide no security between that host and the internal network. That is, the DMZ host is able to connect to hosts on the internal network, but hosts in a real DMZ are prevented from doing so by the [[Firewall (networking)|firewall]] that sits between them.
{{R from merge}}

{{R to section}}
A home [[router]] DMZ host is a host on the internal network that has all ports exposed, except those ports forwarded otherwise.
