Configuring A Wireless Zone - SonicWALL NSA 2400 Getting Started Manual

• Under WEP/WPA Encryption, select the
Authentication Type for your wireless network.
SonicWALL recommends using WPA2 as the
authentication type.
Note:
WPA2 is a more secure replacement for the older
WEP and WPA standards.
• Fill in the fields specific to the authentication type that
you selected. The remaining fields change depending
on the selected authentication type.
3. In the 802.11g Adv tab, configure the advanced radio
settings for the 802.11g radio. For most 802.11g advanced
options, the default settings give optimum performance.
For a full description of the fields on this tab, see the
SonicOS Enhanced Administrator's Guide.
4. In the 802.11a Radio and 802.11a Adv tabs, configure the
settings for the operation of the 802.11a radio bands. The
SonicPoint has two separate radios built in. Therefore, it
can send and receive on both the 802.11a and 802.11g
bands at the same time.
The settings in the 802.11a Radio and 802.11a Advanced
tabs are similar to the settings in the 802.11g Radio and
802.11g Advanced tabs.
5. When finished, click OK.

Configuring a Wireless Zone

You can configure a wireless zone on the Network > Zones
page. Typically, you will configure the WLAN zone for use with
SonicPoints.
1. On the Network > Zones page in the WLAN row, click the
icon in the Configure column.
2. In the Edit Zone dialog box on the General tab, the Allow
Interface Trust setting automates the creation of Access
Rules to allow traffic to flow between the interfaces of a
zone instance. For example, if the WLAN Zone has both
the X2 and X3 interfaces assigned to it, checking Allow
Interface Trust on the WLAN Zone creates the necessary
Access Rules to allow hosts on these interfaces to
communicate with each other.
3. Select the checkboxes for the security services to enable
on this zone. Typically you would enable Gateway Anti-
Virus, IPS, and Anti-Spyware. If your wireless clients are
all running SonicWALL Client Anti-Virus, select Enable
Client AV Enforcement Service.
