DMZ (demilitarized zone) In computer networks, a DMZ (demilitarized zone) is a physical or logical sub-network that separates an internal local area network (LAN) from other untrusted networks, usually the Internet.

There are various ways to design a network with a DMZ. The two most common methods are with a single or dual firewalls.
