Hi, all! &nbsp;This is hopefully a quick question, and for the life of me neither Dell nor Google are helping me out here.<br />
<br />
What are the devices in the Dell SonicWall line that are Gen5 and what are the Gen6 devices?<br />
<br />
We have a SonciWall 240 with firmware rev 5.8.1, and I need to determine what bloody Gen this device is. &nbsp;I think it's Gen 5, but darned if I can find this info documented anywhere. &nbsp;Any assistance here would be greatly appreciated!<br />
<br />
Thanks!<br />

Dell SonicWall: what are the different Gen-x devices?!?

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.
