A DMZ (demilitarized zone) on a home router refers to a DMZ Host. Strictly speaking, this is not a true DMZ. A home router DMZ host is a host on the internal network that has all UDP and TCP ports open and exposed, except those ports otherwise forwarded. They are often used a simple method to forward all ports to another firewall/NAT device.
How to configure DMZ Host

Open the web browser and type the IP address of the device in the address bar (default is 192.168.1.1/192.168.0.1/192.168.0.254). Press Enter.
The default username and password are both admin. Click OK to log into the device.
