This is such an excellent training video! It is so clear and easy to follow. I own a small business and this just saved us $400 in IT fees! Since I am not IT trained I do have questions based on wanting to learn more, however it worked perfectly first time out! Thank you.
Very helpful. Thank you.
Beware bridging WLAN to LAN, as it creates rule overlap. For example, say you create a WAN > LAN rule to allow https to a server. With LAN and WLAN bridged, the internal server is now on BOTH the LAN and WLAN. If you don't have a matching WAN > WLAN rule, and the SonicWALL intermittently reads the destination address as being on the WLAN, and therefore it blocks the traffic intermittently. If you don't realize this is what's happening, it can be a real bear to troubleshoot. Even when you do know, it's easy to forget the quirk that you need to duplicate every WAN > LAN rule under WAN > WLAN. So, while this config is not technically incorrect, it can become quite a nuisance in anything other than the most basic of networks. It's much easier and cleaner to just put the WLAN on a separate subnet to avoid this issue.
I have sonicwaves and os7. I have followed this to create corporate and guest. However, how do I limit guest to internet only, and allow corporate to see the LAN subnet?
