Lorex Auto Port Forwarding Wizard

Configuring a DMZ host connection

• Connect to "Router 1" on your network (referred

to as "Possible 1st Router" in the Auto Port
Forwarding Wizard). Obtain the IP address of
Router 1. Usually this can be found in the
"Status" section of your router menu. The IP
should begin with "192.168...."This IP address is
your DMZ IP.

• Enter the IP address obtained from Router 1 into

the DMZ section of Router 2.

• Once you have configured Router 2 with a DMZ

connection, run the Auto Port Forwarding
Wizard to begin auto port forwarding to Router 1.

• Consult your router’s owner’s manual for details

on configuring DMZ settings.

Example

DMZ stands for Demilitarized Zone. Enabling a DMZ
IP on your router enables one of the routers to pass
information onto the second router.

the main router. Enter
this IP into the DMZ
section of the primary
router.

The IP information is
normally under a
header called "WAN" or
"Internet Port". Each
router has different
terminology.

The "Status Page" of a router normally includes the router’s
vital information such as the IP address.
