Hello, <br />
<br />
I am coming to a new location where we are adding new internet service. &nbsp;The problem is that the firewall is a sonicwall network security appliance and I'm not sure how to configure the device to the new parameters. &nbsp;<br />

Hello, 

I am coming to a new location where we are adding new internet service.  The problem is that the firewall is a sonicwall network security appliance and I'm not sure how to configure the device to the new parameters.  

I'm guessing these are not plug and play.  Is there a tutorial for these devices or can anyone coach me as to what I should focus on.  Just at a glance, it would seem I need to go under Network > Interfaces > Select the right Interface and then adjust the settings.

Is there something I am missing?

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Hardware Firewalls

The term broadband commonly refers to high-speed Internet access that is always on and faster than the traditional dial-up access. Broadband includes several high-speed transmission technologies such as digital subscriber line (DSL), cable, fiber optics, wireless (for which there is a separate topic), satellite and broadband over powerlines (BPL).

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
