    Description

    This article covers how to setup WireMode over VLAN interfaces on a SonicWall firewall.

    Please note, this feature is:

    1. Not available in 6.2.7.1
    2. Available in 6.2.7.7 (9800)
    3. Available in 6.5.0

    Wiremode over VLAN is only supported when VLAN is over two parent interfaces. One parent interface is currently not support.

    Resolution

    In our example we will setup WireMode between VLAN 50 and 51.

    Before configuration:

    After configuration:

    Image

    To configure please perform the following:

    1. Navigate to Network | Interfaces – “Add Interface” via the drop down and select Virtual Interface. Do not select a zone but specify your VLAN tag and parent interface.
      Image
    2. On the second interface navigate to Network | Interfaces – “Add Interface” via the drop down and select Virtual Interface. This time select your zone, specify Wiremode, select the wiremode type, select the paired interface, and then set the paired interface zone.
      Image

    To unconfigure perform the following:

    1. Edit either VLAN sub-interface and select “Unassigned”. At this point you can delete either or both sub-interfaces using the “X” delete icon.
      Image

    The process is the same to configure and remove within 6.5.0. The only difference is the addition of “Mode / IP Assignment” [New but unrelated] - Leave as “Unassigned”.
    Image

    To configure via CLI perform the following:

    config(C0EAE4AC50C0)# interface X10 vlan 50
    (edit-interface[X10:V50])#
    (edit-interface[X10:V50])# commit [Else it will not be an option for the next part…]
    (edit-interface[X10:V50])# exit

    config(C0EAE4AC50C0)# interface x11 vlan 50
    (add-interface[X11:V50])# ip-assignment LAN wire-mode
    (add-wire-mode[X11:V50])# paired-interface X10:V50
    (add-wire-mode[X11:V50])# paired-interface-zone LAN
    (add-wire-mode[X11:V50])# commit

    To unconfigure via CLI perform the following:

    config(C0EAE4AC50C0)# interface x10 vlan 50
    (edit-interface[X10:V50])# no ip-assignment
    (edit-interface[X10:V50])# commit
    (edit-interface[X10:V50])# exit

    config(C0EAE4AC50C0)# no interface x10 vlan 50
    config(C0EAE4AC50C0)# no interface x11 vlan 50
    config(C0EAE4AC50C0)# commit
