IMHO, by placing the app server in the DMZ you have now taken it off your
subnet thus adding to the security of your LAN.
In conjunction with a properly configured firewall denying all HTTP and FTP
processes inbound to your LAN.
Ladies/Gentlemen, Any comments?

Subject: Pros/Cons of WWW Server in LAN vs DMZ?
We have the option of placing a www app server outside our firewall, in the
DMZ or behind the firewall in our LAN by opening port 80 to the www app
server's IP address.
What are the pros and cons of placing it in the DMZ vs in the LAN?
