Modem/Router Combo - DMZ & Port Forwarding

Hello,

 

I am attempting to host several servers from a machine that is connected to a network controlled by my Linksys router. The setup I have used in the past involves plugging a machine directly into my Zyxel modem via Ethernet, but would like to be able to host on a different machine that is connected to the Linksys router instead.

 

From what I've been able to gather, I need to enable DMZ to eliminate the doulbe-NAT that is being constructed by default, but am unsure as to which device I should enable DMZ on. Will forwarding the desired port on the modem and then enabling DMZ on the router and inputing the IP address of the modem on the internal network allow me to host from a machine on the router's network?

 

Thanks
