Updating SonicPoint Firmware
Not all SonicOS Enhanced firmware contains an image of the SonicPoint firmware. To check,
scroll to the bottom of the SonicPoint > SonicPoints page and look for the Download link.
If your SonicWALL appliance has Internet connectivity, it will automatically download the
correct version of the SonicPoint image from the SonicWALL server when you connect a
SonicPoint device.
If your SonicWALL appliance does not have Internet access, or has access only through a
proxy server, you must perform the following steps:
Step 1 Download the SonicPoint image from http://www.mysonicwall.com to a local system with
Internet access.
You can download the SonicPoint image from
one of the following locations:
–
On the same page where you can download the SonicOS Enhanced firmware
–
On the Download Center page, by selecting SonicPoint in the Type drop-down menu
Step 2 Load the SonicPoint image onto a local Web server that is reachable by your SonicWALL
appliance.
