Mounting the SonicWALL TZ 150 Wireless
You can mount your SonicWALL TZ 150 Wireless on a wall or any
vertical surface. Use the template on the next page as a guide for
placing the mounting screws.
1. Using the template on the next page, attach two screws to the
surface where you want to mount the security appliance.
The mounting screws should have a head between 3/16” and
1/4” in diameter.
The mounting screws should stick approximately 1/8” out from
the surface.
2. Slide the slots in the back of the SonicWALL TZ 150 Wireless
over the heads of the mounting screws and then slide the security
appliance down to secure it in place.

Considerations for Mounting the SonicWALL TZ 150 Wireless
• Mount in a location away from direct sunlight and sources of heat.
A maximum ambient temperature of 104º F (40º C) is
recommended.
• Route cables away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures,
and sources of noise such as radios, transmitters, and broadband
amplifiers
• Ensure that no water or excessive moisture can enter the unit.
• Allow unrestricted airflow around the unit and through the vents
on the side of the unit. A minimum of 1 inch (25.44mm) clearance
is recommended.

Glossary of Networking Terms
•Default Gateway - A device on an internetwork that forwards
packets to another network.
•DHCP - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol allocates IP
addresses to computers on the network automatically without
assigning a computer a static (fixed) IP address.
•DNS - A Domain Name System is a hierarchical naming system
that resolves a domain name with its associated IP address. A
DNS server looks up the name of a computer and finds the
corresponding IP address. This allows users to access hosts
using friendly text-based names instead of IP addresses. These
names are called fully qualified domain names (FQDN).
•IP Address - An Internet Protocol Address is a thirty-two bit
number that identifies a computer or other resource on the
Internet or on any TCP/IP network. The number is usually
expressed as four numbers from 0 to 255 separated by periods,
for example, 172.16.31.254.
•LAN - A Local Area Network is typically a group of computers
located at a single location, and is commonly based on the
Ethernet architecture.
•NAT - Network Address Translation is an internet standard that
allows your local network to use private IP addresses, which are
not recognized on the Internet. The IP address used for the router
is the only routable IP address. The computers behind the NAT
can access the Internet through the router, but Internet users
cannot access the computers behind the router.
•Packet - A unit of information transmitted over the internet or
within any TCP/IP network. Packets have a header, which
contains information about the source, destination, and protocol
to be used for the data, and a body, which contains the data being
transmitted.
•PPPoE - The Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet supports the
transmission of network packets over an analog phone line.
•Private IP Address - An IP address for a resource in your
network that is not known or published outside the zone (for
example LAN) where it is located.
Page 32
•Public IP Address - An IP address for a resource in your
network that is published outside your network to the WAN.
•Router - A device that routes data between networks through IP
address information in the header of the IP packet. A router
forwards packets to other routers until the packets reach their
destination. The Internet is the largest example of a routed
network.
•Subnet - A portion of a network. Each subnet within a network
shares a common network address and is uniquely identified by a
subnetwork number.
•Subnet Mask - A 32-bit number used to separate the network
and host sections of an IP address. A subnet mask subdivides an
IP network into smaller pieces. An example of a subnet mask
might be 255.255.255.248 for subnet with only eight IP
addresses.
•TCP/IP - Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol is the
basic communication protocol of the Internet. It supports sending
information in packets, and identifies each device with a unique
numeric IP address.
•VPN - A Virtual Private Network is a virtual network that encrypts
data and sends it privately over the Internet to protect sensitive
information.
•WAN - A Wide Area Network is a geographically distributed
network composed of multiple networks joined into a single large
network. The Internet is a global WAN.
