Let's start with the basics: do you see anything in the ARP cache on those VLANs? Is anything logged about the source IPs when they're trying to reach the internet?

There are plenty of sites out there in the latter category TWKITS and that is where we get the most benefit from SD-WAN. Most of our customers have 1x high-quality fibre WAN + a 4G backup, in which case SD-WAN isn't worth the hassle because it's very obvious which path should be used at any time, and it's just not…

The only way a "cold standby" process can work is if you have regular, automated backups of the "hot" device. As you will also need to have licenses on this cold device like BWC said, you might as well just use the HA mechanism. Yes, you could import the config manually from the primary unit on to the secondary, if the…

For the sake of your own sanity you need the VPN policies to have descriptive names, eg: siteA-X2toX1 would be associated with a VPN policy at the other end called siteB-X1toX2 etc. And yes, put it all in a spreadsheet.

The maintenance key is a Gen 7 feature. https://www.sonicwall.com/support/knowledge-base/safemode-options-on-sonicwall-gen-7-devices/200806113015557/

It could also do with giving a clickable URL the user needs to visit in order to bind. That would speed things up.

If you want to carry the actual VLAN tagged frames, ie L2 traffic across a VPN, then no, you cannot bridge L2 networks over VPN with Sonicwall. If you just want multiple networks to be able to reach each other across a VPN, then yes, that's straightforward enough, per MUSTAFAA's post.

Yes.

Yep, we know this, but unfortunately if you're not familiar with how Sonicwall works then it won't be obvious when you're hitting "Buy It Now" on eBay.

Option 2 - redesign your network. You need to decide whether you want to apply the UTM features to your internal traffic, and use the Sonicwall. Or just plain old routing between internal networks and use your L3 switch.

15 years? You're a mere child. Give it another decade 😉

Not really sure you mean with hovering and base code, but a tool from Sonicwall to "wash" a configuration that you can then reload into the firewall would be useful. It's a bit pathetic that Support cannot say which specific part of a configuration causes an issue and "blow it all away and do it again" is the resolution.…

I've never configured a Sonicwall as an L2TP server so I cannot offer you much help on that front. This also means I have no idea if SSLVPN Client Routes are relevant to L2TP clients. What instructions are you following here? If X0 and X3 are both in LAN zone then "LAN Subnets" object would include both interface's subnets.

You can create network monitor policies on each firewall to ping various things to help you narrow down where the connectivity issue is.
