The company is setting up a new website that will be requiring a lot of interaction with external
users. The website needs to be accessible both externally and internally but without allowing
access to internal resources. Which of the following would MOST likely be configured on the
firewall?
A.
PAT
B.
DHCP
C.
DMZ
D.
NAT
Explanation:
DMZ is a physical or logical subnetwork that contains and exposes an
organization’s external-facing services to a larger and 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.
