Using the Migration Tool

To migrate firewall configuration file

1. Navigate to migratetool.global.sonicwall.com.

2. Validate that your old firewall is part of the supported set listed and click Next to start the wizard.

   

3. In the Select Product drop-down list, select the vendor name of the firewall you are migrating from.
4. Click on Browse to select the configuration from for your old firewall.

5. Click Next.

   

6. Select the firewall model you want to configure from the SELECT TARGET PRODUCT list.

   The selected product displays in SELECTED PRODUCT pane. You can read more about that product by using the forward and back arrows to navigate the specifications. Click on the link for More Specs to see the product page for that firewall.

7. Click Next.

    You should reset the firewall to factory defaults before importing the configuration file (not required if the device is fresh out of the box).

14. Check the DNS settings (configure them manually, if needed).
15. Reboot the firewall.
