Configuring the Common Settings for L2 Bridge Mode Deployments
The following settings need to be configured on your SonicWALL UTM appliance prior to using
it in most of the Layer 2 Bridge Mode topologies.
Licensing Services
When the appliance is successfully registered, go to the System > Licenses page and click
Synchronize under Manage Security Services Online. This will contact the SonicWALL
licensing server and ensure that the appliance is properly licensed.
To check licensing status, go to the System > Status page and view the license status of all
the UTM services (Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware, and Intrusion Prevention).
Disabling DHCP Server
When using a SonicWALL UTM appliance in Layer 2 Bridge Mode in a network configuration
where another device is acting as the DHCP server, you must first disable its internal DHCP
engine, which is configured and running by default. On the Network > DHCP Server page,
clear the Enable DHCP Server check box, and then click on the Accept button at the top of
the screen.
Configuring SNMP Settings
On the System > Administration page, make sure the checkbox next to Enable SNMP is
checked, and then click on the Accept button at the top of the screen.
