Create a new VLAN on Sonicwall Switch managed by WCM.

Separate subnets and VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks) is essential for optimizing and securing our network infrastructure.

In this example we will create a new Virtual LAN, called VLAN 210, containing the 192.168.210.0/24 subnet.

Environment used on this example:

Sonicwall Firewall GEN7

Sonicwall Switch managed by WCM (Wireless Cloud Manager)

DHCP server on firewall

On the Firewall        

•      Create a new zone as “Trusted” security type
  Object  | Match Object  | Zones
  

•      Create a subInterface with a static ip
  Network  | System  | Interfaces Add interface  | Virtual interface
  

•      Create a DHCP pool for subnet 210.
  Network  | SYSTEM  | DHCP Server
  

On the Switch

•     Create VLAN 210, and set VLAN 210 as “Tagged” on port 1, and set VLAN 210 as “Untagged” on port 2
• On WCM | SW serial number  | CONFIGURE (pencil)
  SWITCH CONFIG  | VLAN  | Add Vlan Setting
  

On Laptop

• End device should get an IP automatically on the Subnet in vlan 210, via DHCP.
• Verify by Pinging the IP of the X0:V210 interface.
