B) DMZ
A DMZ, or demilitarized zone, is used in network security to add an additional layer of safety to a local area network (LAN) when connecting to other networks, such as the internet. By setting up a DMZ, you are creating a subnetwork that contains the device hosting the game server. This subnetwork is exposed to the internet, allowing your friends to connect to your game server, while the rest of your local network remains secure behind the main firewall. This setup helps to protect your private local network from potential attacks that could target the game server while still allowing external access to it.
