SonicWALL PRO 2040 Security Appliance
The SonicWALL PRO 2040 is a total security platform for complex networks, utilizing a
deep packet inspection engine and six* fully configurable Ethernet interfaces to provide
cost-effective, enterprise-class firewall throughput and VPN concentration. As a
comprehensive network security, mobility and productivity solution targeting networks
comprising 200 or fewer nodes or 50 or fewer network locations, the SonicWALL PRO
2040 offers the configuration flexibility and redundancy features typically associated with
more expensive appliances.
* Six interfaces are available by upgrading from the SonicOS Standard version of
software to SonicOS Enhanced. Also note that ICSA certification for the SonicWALL
PRO 2040 only applies when running the SonicOS Enhanced version of software on the
device. See both the SonicOS Enhanced Release Notes and the standalone
documentation for details on upgrading from SonicOS Standard to SonicOS Enhanced.
This Getting Started Guide provides instructions for basic installation and configuration of
the SonicWALL PRO 2040 running SonicOS Standard. After you complete this guide,
computers on your Local Area Network (LAN) will have secure Internet access.
Note:
For complete documentation, refer to the SonicOS Standard Administrator's Guide on the
