Configuring L2 Bridge Mode

This section provides instructions to configure the Dell 
SonicWALL NSA 6600 appliance in tandem with an existing 
Internet gateway device. This section is relevant to users 
following deployment Scenario C.

See the following sections:

•

Connect the X1 port on your Dell SonicWALL NSA 6600 to the 
LAN port on your existing Internet gateway device. Then 
connect the X0 port on your Dell SonicWALL to your LAN 
resources.

The primary bridge interface is connected to your existing 
Internet gateway device. The only step involved in setting up 
your primary bridge interface is to ensure that the WAN 
interface is configured for a static IP address. You will need this 
static IP address when configuring the secondary bridge.

Note that the primary bridge interface must have a static IP 
assignment.
