YES - This is a traditional "routed" DMZ...your ISP routes a block of IP's
to the external interface of your firewall

PROXY - A "Proxy-ARP" DMZ...used if you've got a block of static IP's from
your ISP.  The firewall essentially "glues together" two identical network
segments, allowing your DMZ systems to be configured with public IP's (just
like they were connected directly to your upstream modem), but still having
the protection of a firewall.

NAT - Similar to a Proxy-ARP setup, but uses static-NAT translation instead.
Each DMZ system is configured with a private IP, and a translation table is
built, converting public IP's to the private IP of your DMZ systems.

PRIVATE - This architecture is unique...it port-forwards specific services
to DMZ machines, which have private IP's.  The main benifit is you don't
have to have multiple IP's assigned to be able to implement this form of
DMZ.

NO - No DMZ
