SonicWALL TZ 190 Manuale Utente

When you create a PortShield interface in Transparent Mode, you create a range of addresses 
to be applied to the PortShield interface. You include these addresses in one entity called an 
Address Object. Address Objects allow for entities to be defined one time and to be re-used in 
multiple referential instances throughout the SonicOS interface. When you create a PortShield 
interface using an address object, all ports mapped to the interface are identified by any of the 
addresses specified in the address range. 

Each statically addressed PortShield interface must be on a unique subnetwork. You can 
not overlap PortShield interfaces across multiple subnetworks.

There are four ways to approach configuration of PortShield interface. They are:

By going into the Interfaces environment and clicking the Add PortShield Interface button.

By going into the Switch Ports environment and clicking on port icons in an interactive 
graphic of the SonicWALL TZ 180 or TZ 190 appliance.

By going into the Switch Ports environment and clicking on the pen and paper icon in the 
Configure column of the switch ports list.

By using the PortShield interface wizard and clicking on options presented in the wizard 
screens.

To create a PortShield interface using the first method, perform the following tasks:

Log into the SonicWALL TZ 180 or TZ 190 security appliance.

Create and add a PortShield interface to the list of interfaces. The PortShield interface is a 
virtual interface that you are adding to segment and control traffic for the 8-port managed 
SonicWALL TZ 180 or TZ 190 appliance. After you select a zone, you select a series of 
ports that you want to assign to the PortShield interface.

Navigate to the Switch Port environment and perform either per-port or multiple-port extra 
configuration.

To create a PortShield interface using the second and third methods, perform the following 
tasks:

Log into the SonicWALL TZ 180 or TZ 190 security appliance.

Create and add a PortShield interface to the list of interfaces.

Go to the Switch Port environment and assign ports to the PortShield interface you have 
already created.

For the second method, select ports from the device graphic.

For third method, click on the pen and paper icon and select ports from the same dialog 
boxes you work in the Interface environment.

Perform per-port or multiple-port extra configuration.

To create a PortShield interface using the fourth method, perform the following tasks:

Log into the SonicWALL TZ 180 or TZ 190 security appliance.

Click Wizards environment and select the PortShield Interface Wizard.

Navigate through the wizard screens, selecting and verifying one of the options presented 
for switch partitioning which divides the ports up into various amounts.
