Sonic Wall NSA 240 Questuons
I have purchased a SonicWall NSA240 and am trying to set it up, but I have a couple of questions. At the moment, SonicWall tech support seems unreliable, so I am looking to this community for help.
1. We are small Christian School with about 300 students. Often times those students need to research topics the sonicwall will block. Is there a way to easily, temporarily suspend the sonic wall filtering for a specific student?
2. Guest accounts seem to be a possible solution. However, I am having the sonic wall use the student active directory credentials to determine the level of filtering. How do I trigger the log in screen so the student can use the guest account? They have been already authenticated when they logged into the workstation? Am I being clear?
Thank you.

Thanks for the reply.
I have the guide you mentioned above. And it does a great job of telling you how to create it. I have created the guest accounts. But it does not tell you how to use it.
My students are logged onto the computer. Active directory/Group policy on our windows 2000 server handles their local work station. Sonic wall uses the LDAP/Active directory credentials and let's them go to the internet.
Basically, I want to over ride their normal filtering by having them use these guest accounts. But I do not know how get them to log on to the sonic wall to use the guest account.
any ideas there?
