SonicWALL 4500, NSA 5000, 3500 manual Assigning an Interface to the Wireless Zone

Note: If you have configured WPA2 as your authentication type, you do not need to enable WiFiSec.

•If you have enabled WiFiSec Enforcement, you can specify the following:

•Select WiFiSec Exception Service to select services that are allowed to bypass the WiFiSec enforcement.

•Select Require WiFiSec for Site-to-Site VPN Tunnel Traversal to require WiFiSec security for all wireless connections through the WLAN zone that are part of a Site-to-Site VPN.

•If you wish to run WPA or WPA2 in addition to WiFiSec, you can select Trust WPA/WPA2 traffic as WiFiSec to accept WPA and WPA2 as allowable alternatives to IPsec.

•Under SonicPoint Settings, select the SonicPoint Provisioning Profile you want to apply to all SonicPoints connected to this zone. Whenever a SonicPoint connects to this zone, it will automatically be provisioned by the settings in the SonicPoint Provisioning Profile, unless you have individually configured it with different settings.

5.Optionally configure the settings on the Guest Services tab. For information about configuring Guest Services, see the SonicOS Enhanced Administrator’s Guide.

6.When finished, click OK.

5.If you want to enable remote management of the SonicWALL security appliance from this interface, select the supported management protocol(s): HTTP, HTTPS, SSH, Ping, SNMP, and/or SSH.

6.If you want to allow selected users with limited management rights to log in to the security appliance, select HTTP and/or HTTPS in User Login.

7.Click OK.
