Can I operate my TZ 170 SP with the cover removed?

NO! Operating the TZ 170 SP with the cover removed can cause permanent damage to the processor and motherboard, and void the warranty. Do not power up your TZ 170 SP with the cover removed.

What are the interfaces on the TZ 170 SP?

ƒLAN - 5 port 10/100 Mbps switch

ƒOpt. Zone – 1 port 10/100 Mbps port (NOTE: disabled in SonicOS 2.6 Standard)

ƒWAN – 1 port 10/100 Mbps

ƒMODEM – 56Kbps V.92 analog modem

Are all of the fixed Ethernet interfaces on the TZ 170 SP AutoMDIX-capable?

Yes, all Ethernet interfaces are capable of automatically sensing polarity and adjusting to the cable type attached to the interfaces (i.e. straight-through or crossover). Users are now free to attach either type of cable to the interfaces when connecting the TZ 170 SP. Please note that if auto-negotiation of speed and duplex is disabled on a port, it will also disable AutoMDIX.

Can I individually set the speed and duplex of the LAN switch’s 5 ports?

No, this is not possible. The speed and duplex configuration settings for the LAN interface apply to all five ports.

Can I hook a hub or switch up to the TZ 170 SP’s switch ports?

Yes, you can cascade hubs/switches off any interfaces on the TZ 170 SP.

Can I assign the LAN switch ports to different zones?

SonicOS 2.x Standard does not employ the Zone paradigm; interfaces will serve as the top level of the configuration hierarchy. Upgrading to SonicOS Enhanced will offer up to three Zones (LAN, WAN, and a configurable Zone) but the switch ports will be addressed as a single logical interface statically assigned to the LAN Zone.
