SonicOS Enhanced 5.6.5.1 Release Notes
 
P/N 232-002002-00   Rev B 
 
Licensing 
Licensing for the Active/Active Clustering (including Stateful High Availability) and BGP Advanced Routing features 
is included with the following SonicWALL NSA E-Class appliances, when registered: 
 
SonicWALL NSA E8500 
 
SonicWALL NSA E7500 
 
SonicWALL NSA E6500 
 
SonicWALL NSA E5500 
To activate these licenses, register each appliance on MySonicWALL. Even when deployed in a High Availability 
pair, each unit must be individually registered to activate the licenses.  
When available, a SonicOS Expanded License can be purchased for the following SonicWALL appliances to 
activate the BGP Advanced Routing feature: 
 
SonicWALL NSA 5000 
 
SonicWALL NSA 4500 
 
SonicWALL NSA 3500 
 
SonicWALL NSA 2400 
 
SonicWALL NSA 240 
 
SonicWALL TZ 210 / 210 Wireless-N 
 
SonicWALL TZ 200 / 200 Wireless-N 
Note: Active/Active Clustering is supported only on SonicWALL NSA E-Class appliances. 
No free trial is available for the BGP Advanced Routing feature. 
Key Features 
The following key features are available in SonicOS 5.6.5.1:  
 
Active/Active Clustering High Availability
Active/Active Clustering is the most recent addition to the High 
Availability feature set in SonicOS. A typical Active/Active Clustering deployment includes four firewalls of the 
same SonicWALL model configured as two Cluster Nodes, where each node consists of one Stateful High 
Availability pair. For larger deployments, the cluster can include eight firewalls, configured as four Cluster 
Nodes.  
With Active/Active Clustering, you can assign certain traffic flows to each node in the cluster, providing load 
sharing in addition to redundancy, and supporting a much higher throughput without a single point of failure. 
Earlier High Availability features, such as Stateful Synchronization and Active/Active DPI (previously called 
Active/Active UTM), continue to be supported and are recommended for use in conjunction with Active/Active 
Clustering.  
Active/Active Clustering is supported only on SonicWALL NSA E-Class appliances. 
 
BGP Advanced Routing
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) advanced routing is a large-scale routing protocol 
used to communicate routing information between Autonomous Systems (AS
’s), which are well-defined, 
separately administered network domains. BGP support allows for SonicWALL security appliances to replace a 
traditional BGP router on the edge of a network's AS. The current SonicWALL implementation of BGP is most 
appropriate for "single-provider / single-homed" environments, where the network uses one ISP as their Internet 
provider and has a single connection to that provider. SonicWALL BGP is also capable of supporting "single-
provider / multi-homed" environments, where the network uses a single ISP but has a small number of separate 
routes to the provider. Because BGP transmits packets in the clear, SonicWALL supports using an IPSec tunnel 
for secure BGP sessions. The IPSec tunnel is configured independently within the VPN configuration section of 
the SonicOS Web-based management interface, while BGP is enabled on the Network > Routing page and 
then configured on the SonicOS Command Line Interface. 
BGP Advanced Routing is available on all SonicWALL NSA and TZ appliances supported in SonicOS 5.6.5.1.
