C - SSL-VPN on the LAN IP Address: An unused address within your LAN subnet, for

example: 192.168.168.200.

Subnet Mask: Must match your LAN subnet mask.

If you are using scenario: Your upstream gateway device will be:

A - SSL-VPN on a New DMZ The DMZ you will create (for example, 192.168.200.2).

B - SSL-VPN on an Existing DMZ Your existing DMZ interface.

C - SSL-VPN on the LAN Your LAN gateway.

Page 12

3. Select X0 in the Interfaces drop down list.

4. Click the Accept button.

Adding a NetExtender Client Route

NetExtender allows remote clients to have seamless access to resources on your local

network.

1. Navigate to the NetExtender > Client Routes page.

2. Click the Add Client Route button.

3. Enter the IP address of the trusted network to which you would like to provide access

with NetExtender in the Destination Network field. (For example, if you are

connecting to an existing DMZ with the network 192.168.50.0/24 and you want to

provide access to your LAN network 192.168.168.0/24, you would enter

192.168.168.0).

Note: You can optionally tunnel-all SSL-VPN client traffic through the NetExtender

connection by entering 0.0.0.0 for the Destination Network and Subnet Mask.

Some operating systems or system environments do not correctly apply the 0.0.0.0

default route. If this is the case, you may also specify tunnel-all operation by using

two more specific routes as follows:

4. Enter your subnet mask in the Subnet Mask field.

5. Click the Add button to add this client route.

Route 1 Destination Network: 0.0.0.0

Subnet Mask: 128.0.0.0

Route 2 Destination Network: 128.0.0.0

Subnet Mask: 128.0.0.0

SonicWALL SSL-VPN 2000 Getting Started Guide Page 13

Setting your NetExtender Address Range

The NetExtender IP range defines the IP address pool from which addresses will be

assigned to remote users during NetExtender sessions. The range needs to be large

enough to accommodate the maximum number of concurrent NetExtender users you

wish to support.

The range should fall within the same subnet as the interface to which the SonicWALL

SSL-VPN appliance is connected, and in cases where there are other hosts on the same

segment as the SonicWALL SSL-VPN appliance, it must not overlap or collide with any

assigned addresses. You can determine the correct subnet based on your network

scenario selection:

Scenario A Use the default NetExtender range:

192.168.200.100 to 192.168.200.200

Scenario B Select a range that falls within your existing DMZ subnet. For

example, if your DMZ uses the 192.168.50.0/24 subnet, and

you want to support up to 30 concurrent NetExtender sessions,

you could use 192.168.50.220 to 192.168.50.249, providing

they are not already in use.

Scenario C Select a range that falls within your existing LAN subnet. For

example, if your LAN uses the 192.168.168.0/24 subnet, and

you want to support up to 10 concurrent NetExtender sessions,

you could use 192.168.168.240 to 192.168.168.249, providing

they are not already in use.

Page 14

To set your NetExtender address range, perform the following steps:

1. Navigate to the NetExtender > Client Settings page.

2. Enter an address range for your clients in the Client Address Range Begin and

Client Address Range End fields.

If you have too few available addresses to support your desired number of concurrent

NetExtender users you may use a new subnet for NetExtender. This condition might

occur if your existing DMZ or LAN is configured in NAT mode with a small subnet space,

such as 255.255.255.224, or more commonly if your DMZ or LAN is configured in

Transparent mode and you have a limited number of public addresses from your ISP.

In either case, you may assign a new, unallocated IP range to NetExtender (such as

192.168.10.100 to 192.168.10.200) and configure a route to this range on your gateway

appliance.

For example, if your current Transparent range is 67.115.118.75 through 67.115.118.80,

and you wish to support 50 concurrent NetExtender clients, configure your SSL-VPN X0

interface with an available IP address in the Transparent range, such as 67.115.118.80,

and configure your NetExtender range as 192.168.10.100 to 192.168.10.200. Then, on

your gateway device, configure a static route to 192.168.10.0/255.255.255.0 using

67.115.118.80.

Continue to Step

Scenario A 192.168.200.100 to

192.168.200.200

(default range)

Scenario B An unused range within

your DMZ subnet.

Scenario C An unused range within

your LAN subnet.

Testing Your SSL-VPN Connection

Now you have configured your SonicWALL UTM appliance and SonicWALL SSL-

VPN 2000 for secure SSL VPN remote access.This section provides instructions to

verify your SSL-VPN connection using a remote client on the WAN.

Verifying a User Connection from the Internet

1. From a WAN connection outside of your corporate network, launch a Web browser

and enter the following:

https:// <WAN_IP_address_of_gateway_device>______________________

Note: It will be easier for your remote users to access the SonicWALL SSL-VPN

appliance using an FQDN (fully qualified domain name) rather than an IP address. For

example, browsing to “http://www.sonicwall.com” is simpler than browsing to

“http://64.41.140.167”. It is therefore recommended, if you have not already done so, that

you create a DNS record to allow for FQDN access to your SonicWALL SSL-VPN

appliance. If you do not manage your own public DNS servers, contact your Internet

Service Provider for assistance.

For configurations where your ISP provides dynamic IP addressing rather than a static IP

address, refer to the steps in “Configuring Dynamic DNS” on page 51 to set up DDNS for

your remote users.

2. When prompted, enter the User Name and Password created in “Adding a Local

User” on page 8 of this guide.

3. Select LocalDomain from the drop-down menu and click the Login button. The

SonicWALL Virtual Office screen appears in your Web browser.

4. Click NetExtender to start the NetExtender client installation.



SonicWALL SSL-VPN 2000 Getting Started Guide Page 55

5. Click the NetExtender button and complete the client installation. When

complete, the following message is displayed:

6. Ping a host on your corporate LAN to verify your SSL-VPN remote connection.

Congratulations! You have successfully set up your SonicWALL SSL-VPN 2000.

Configuring Dynamic DNS

To begin using Dynamic DNS, you must first set up an account with one of the four free

service providers listed below:

• DynDNS.org

• changeip.com

• No-IP.com

•yi.org

It is possible to use multiple providers simultaneously. The registration process normally

involves a confirmation email from the provider, with a final acknowledgment performed

by visiting a unique URL embedded in the confirmation email.

After logging in to the selected provider's page, you should visit the administrative link

(typically 'add' or 'manage'), and create your host entries. This must be performed prior to

attempting to use the dynamic DNS client on SonicOS.

The Network > Dynamic DNS page provides the settings for configuring the SonicWALL

UTM appliance to use your DDNS service.

Page 60

To configure Dynamic DNS on the SonicWALL UTM appliance, perform these steps:

1. On the Network > Dynamic DNS page, click the Add button. The Add DDNS

Profile window is displayed.

2. If Enable this DDNS Profile is selected, the profile is administratively enabled, and

the SonicWALL UTM appliance takes the actions defined in the Online Settings

section on the Advanced tab.

3. If Use Online Settings is selected, the profile is administratively online.

4. Enter a name to assign to the DDNS entry in the Profile Name field. This can be any

value used to identify the entry in the Dynamic DNS Settings table.

5. In the Profile page, select the Provider from the drop-down list at the top of the

page. This example uses DynDNS.org. Dyndns.org requires the selection of a

service. This example assumes you have created a dynamic service record with

dyndns.org.

6. Enter your dyndns.org username and password in the User Name and Password

fields.

SonicWALL SSL-VPN 2000 Getting Started Guide Page 61

7. Enter the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the hostname you registered with

dyndns.org. Make sure you provide the same hostname and domain as you

configured.

8. You may optionally select Enable Wildcard and/or configure an MX entry in the Mail

Exchanger field.

9. Click the Advanced tab. You can typically leave the default settings on this page.

10. The On-line Settings section provides control over what address is registered with

the dynamic DNS provider. The options are:

Let the server detect IP Address - The dynamic DNS provider determines the IP

address based upon the source address of the connection. This is the most common

setting.

Automatically set IP Address to the Primary WAN Interface IP Address - This

will cause the SonicWALL device to assert its WAN IP address as the registered IP

address, overriding auto-detection by the dynamic DNS server. Useful if detection is

not working correctly.

Specify IP Address manually - Allows for the IP address to be registered to be

manually specified and asserted.

11. The Off-line Settings section controls what IP Address is registered with the

dynamic DNS service provider if the dynamic DNS entry is taken off-line locally

(disabled) on the SonicWALL. The options are:

Do nothing - the default setting. This allows the previously registered address to

remain current with the dynamic DNS provider.

Use the Off-Line IP Address previously configured at Provider’s site - If your provider

supports manual configuration of Off-Line Settings, you can select this option to use

those settings when this profile is taken administratively offline.

12. Click the OK button.

Mounting Guidelines

The SonicWALL SSL-VPN 2000 is designed to be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack

mount cabinet. The following conditions are required for proper installation:

• Use the mounting hardware recommended by the rack manufacturer and ensure

that the rack is adequate for the application. SonicWALL includes a rack

mounting kit with the SonicWALL SSL-VPN appliance that is compatible with

most computer equipment racks.

• Four mounting screws, compatible with the rack design, must be used and hand

tightened to ensure secure installation. Select a mounting location where all four

mounting holes line up with those of the mounting bars of the 19-inch rack mount

cabinet.

• 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.

• Mount the SonicWALL appliances evenly in the rack in order to prevent a

hazardous condition caused by uneven mechanical loading.

• Consideration must be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply

circuit and the effect of overloading the circuits has minimal impact on

overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of

equipment nameplate ratings must be used when addressing this concern.

• Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment must be maintained. Particular

attention must be given to power supply connections other than direct

connections to the branch circuits such as using power strips.

Glossary of Networking Terms

ActiveX - A technology that allows the sharing of applications and data across the Web. For

example, Active X allows you to view Microsoft Word and Adobe Acrobat documents

within the Internet Explorer Web browser without downloading the files and launching the

appropriate application. The SonicWALL SSL VPN network client, NetExtender, uses an

ActiveX control when launched or installed from Internet Explorer on Windows. With

Firefox, XPCOM is used, which is similar to ActiveX. On Linux or MacOS systems, Java

is used with NetExtender.

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.

DMZ - A network zone segregated from the LAN, typically used for servers accessible from

the Internet. Traffic between the Internet and the DMZ and between the DMZ and the

LAN can be carefully monitored and controlled. DMZ comes from “Demilitarized Zone”.

DNS - Domain Name System, 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 - Internet Protocol Address, 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.

NetExtender - A network client that allows Windows users to connect to a network through

the SonicWALL SSL-VPN 2000. When using NetExtender, users have access to files and

network resources as if they were physically within the network.

Portal - A gateway, usually through the Internet to network resources or services. The

SonicWALL SSL-VPN 2000 provides a Portal as the user interface for remote access to

protected LAN resources such as Web and FTP servers, files shares, and remote

desktops.

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.

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.

Page 66

SSL VPN - Secure Socket Layer Virtual Private Networking. A secured private

communications network usually used within a company, or by several different

companies or organizations, communicating over a public network. SSL technology is

used either for tunneling the entire network stack, or for securing what is essentially a

Web proxy.

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.
