New Feature in SonicOS 7.1.1 (UPE): Control from what source subnet we allow management traffic.

New feature was added to SonicOS 7.1.1 and later versions. Ability to enable Management tabs (HTTPS/PING/SSH) and Source (IP) on Interfaces (UPE)

New to 7.1.1 ability to select source IP.

The following example demonstrates the procedure to enable management, however the same steps apply to HTTP, SSH, Ping, SNMP, and/or SSH:

Management Rules lookup based on Source IP, Protocol, Destination IP.

1. Login to the SonicWall management Interface.
2. Navigate to NETWORK |Interfaces. 
3. Click Edit icon for an interface (e.g. WAN / X1 interface) .
4. Select HTTPS in the supported MANAGEMENT protocol(s) section.
   NOTE: :If you want to allow selected more restrictive source addresses  with limited management rights to log in to the security appliance, select HTTP and/or HTTPS under USER LOGIN.
   
5. Click OK.

You may substitute another interface for the WAN in the above instructions. You will now be able to access the SonicWall using the WAN IP address, use https://publicIP of the SonicWall

 EXAMPLE: https://100.100.100.100 from the “Custom Defined Address Object: TEST MGMT IP address”
