IIRC using the firewall to manage Sonicwall switches is severely limited. We ended up just using the switch UI and not associating it with the firewall at all. Mind you this was probably 2 years ago.

Doubt it, but you can talk to your rep.

Based on the screenshot they provided yes. A more thorough KB would be:

I need clarification. A simple diagram: PC ethernet < - > Cisco switch #1 < - > Sonicwall port X0 (IP: 10.1.52.200) If the PC is configured with an IP (IP: 10.1.52.10) on the same subnet as X0 the PC will be able to access the Sonicwall using its X0 IP address (IP: 10.1.52.200). Without changing the above diagram, are you…

"How can I differentiate that which subnet's IP should I assign in clients computer to access the resources" You'll have to test that yourself. Connect a PC to each of the subnets you listed and test what access you have. This would be part of an assessment phase. It seems to me you are not a native english speaker and are…

When making any major change to a network you must try to address all variables and situations. I suggest the following steps for all projects, large or small, network or otherwise. Assess and understand what is currently in place. Plan changes based on the assessment. Plan for the best and worst scenarios you may…

All of the information you are looking for is in the screenshots you've attached. "Is this good sign regarding Security in such flat network? because I can give any IP of any three said networks to access the resources. I can not protect any resource within the lan in this environment" You've already answered your own…

Assuming your 'senior' isn't pulling your leg: its a 'flat' network meaning all subnets and traffic reside on the default VLAN. Routes to each individual subnet are auto-added because an interface on the subnet exists on the firewall. Since all of the interfaces are in the same zone, all of the default access rules will…

At no point in time would I ever recommend automatic firmware updates for any product in a production environment.

Similar issues have been reported here:
-
The discussion below is relevant to your inquiry as far as configuration changes. Manufacturers provide SFP compatibility lists to find appropriate models. On a side note I must correct myself that portsheild-ing is NOT likely software based.

Open a support ticket. They will probably have you upgrade the firmware (you didnt tell us what version), and maybe even factory reset and reconfigure the device. If the reboots are random and doesnt seem to be at regular intervals with a detectable pattern than you may have bad hardware.
-
At this point either swap in a different Sonicwall with the same config, or factory reset and reconfigure the existing Sonicwall, and re-test.

Without knowing the reason the Fortigate has 'two lan interfaces' it's hard to say. The fact that you say the 'LAN goes to an unmanageable switch' makes me question the 'two lan interfaces' statement. Anyways, the idea is like you described: an interface is set to 'wiremode' with type 'secure' and a 'paired' interface. The…

You are missing some important tests and information. Does the traceroute drop out at the same place when the PC is directly connected to your ISP? Tracert drops are fairly normal when connecting to hosting providers as their internal routing for redundancy becomes irrelevant to the public internet. Do you have a static IP…
