Go to Settings > Setup > LAN Setup and then you want Address Reservation but it is the same thing. Once you have done that and reserved an IP for the console then you put that same IP address into the DMZ server which is found in Settings > Setup > WAN Settings.

ok thanks one last thing so do i make reservation address and console xbox one and dmz all the same ip address
- Netduma-FraserOct 30, 2019NetDuma PartnerYes, take a look in the device manager or the Xbox console settings themselves and see what IP it has. Put that IP in the reservations in LAN Settings. When that is done put that same IP address in the DMZ as well.
