“Depending on the configuration of the DMZ.” This is an important point. Once the box in the DMZ is popped what traffic from it is allowed to the internal network needs to be considered.

If the Management server resides on the internal LAN, and it gets hacked, it has direct access to the LAN. If it resides on a DMZ, and gets hacked, it only has direct access to other machines on the same DMZ subnet, it is isolated from the Internal LAN. Depending on the configuration of the DMZ.

Scenario : I have PC’s that use port xxxx to talk to a management server, I’m wondering of that server needs to be in the DMZ (with that port opened), or if forwarding that port through is functionally the same thing?
