SonicOS 5.8.1 Administrator Guide
• L2TP - uses IPsec to connect a L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol) server and encrypts all
data transmitted from the client to the server. However, it does not encrypt network traffic
to other destinations.
Note For Windows clients, L2TP is supported by Windows 2000 and Windows XP. If you are
running other versions of Windows, you must use PPTP as your tunneling protocol.
Step 4 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. You can also select HTTP for management traffic. However, bear in mind that
HTTP traffic is less secure than HTTPS.
To allow access to the WAN interface for management fr
om another zone on the same
appliance, access rules must be created. See “Allowing WAN Primary IP Access from the LAN
Zone” on page 615 for more information.
Step 5 If you want to allow selected users with limited management rights to log directly into the
security appliance from this interface, select HTTP and/or HTTPS in User Login.
Step 6 Check Add rule to enable redirect from HTTP to HTTPS, if you want an HTTP connection
automatically redirected to a secure HTTPS connection to the SonicWALL security appliance
management interface.
Step 7 After completing the WAN configuration for your Network Addressing Mode, click OK.
