Caution
Entering an IP address can make the designated computer vulnerable to external
attacks. Nokia recommends that you not define an exposed host unless you are fully
aware of the security risks.
To define a computer as an exposed host
The exposed host receives all traffic that is not forwarded to another computer by using Allow
and Forward rules.
1. Click Security in the main menu, and click the Exposed Host tab.
The Exposed Host window appears.
2. In the Exposed Host text box, type the IP address of the computer to define as an exposed
host. Alternatively, you can click This Computer to define your computer as the exposed
host.
3. Click Apply.
The selected computer is now defined as an exposed host.
