>A DMZ is an area of your network that has restricted access to the internal machines. It's used for hosting a web server, for example, so that if the machine with public access from the internet is hacked, your internal machine(s) are safe (or safer) from it. It only applies if you have a genuine router that connects to the internet. I get the concept - like another method of security.
