  • I'm including a couple screenshots. One of our current firmware version and the other of the DPI settings. As you can see it appears the DPI-SSL you mentioned is not enabled. However, youtube was giving the restricted message. Unchecking the youtube restricted mode box in sonicwall on the CFS immediately resolved the issue.
  • JOHN_LASERSOHN From your reply it appears that I will in fact need to configure a 2nd WAN inteface then but I can leave VPN policies set to "Zone WAN"? Our gateways internally have unique Ips but virtual Ip on the external so that IP stays the same outside looking in.
  • Michael@BWC This is confusing to me. My understanding is that I'll need two WAN interfaces on each appliance(upstream providers gateways each have unique Ips), won't my existing VPNs need to be bound to both in the event one of providers gateways goes down? Otherwise I'd need to manually change the binding in the event of…
  • Michael@BWC, I'm wondering about this statement currently: X1 not assigned? That's not common, but my recommendation works for other WAN interfaces as well, you always should bind the VPN to the specific Interface, whatever it is X2, X3, etc. This makes sure that outbound (initiating) VPN connections are assigned to the…
  • Thank you for the link. I browsed those articles previously however I couldn't find much outside of very specific how tos for tasks that are geared towards someone already knowledgeable of SonicOS. I think I need more explanation for Objects, interfaces and generally how things flow through the device. Anything like that…
  • All of the information that's been given so far has been very helpful. I think I need to get more familiar with the SonicOS itself going forward. Oddly enough, I cannot find a general guide outside of very specific "how tos". Anyone have a link to a guide to get more insight into the SonicOS that covers the basics?
  • This question doesn't deal directly with my original question however it does fit within the scope of the project. Digging further into the Sonicwall. I'm seeing interface X0 and X2 assigned in the following address objects: X0 IP10.44.255.1/255.255.255.255 Type:Host X0 Subnet10.44.255.0/255.255.255.252 Type:Network X2…
  • Michael, The information you've provided has been very helpful! I'm looking at these things now and it appears all of our VPNs are bound to WAN. Per the info. you provided, I'll have to change that. However I do have one quick question on the subject. I'm a noob with SonicOS so bare with me. Looking under…
  • Michael, Can you tell why you suggest VPN policies should be bound to X1? Our X1 interface is currently not assigned. I'm inexperienced with Sonicwall obviously.
  • What you both are suggesting sounds like it could fit with my scenario. It looks as if I'd have to setup two WAN ports. I have one Ip address assigned to our current WAN port, and it is unique as it has our web mail serverbehind it, VPNs and various other permanent links. Is it possible to setup what you're proposing with…
