Question 1

What's the difference between the firewall only model and the more expensive versions? i.e. if i just need a high speed reliable vpn with a firewall?

Accepted Answer

Hello Elliander,
The firewall only model is just that - no security services or support. 90-day firmware updates. The more expensive versions have security services and support. If you want the security services and or support, give me a call at the below number to discuss your SKU options.

The TZ350 includes: 
> 1 Global client VPN license (IPsec)  - can purchase additional for a max of 10 total licenses. 
> 1 SSL VPN license - can purchase additional for a max of 75 total licenses.

NOTE: To activate the licenses, once you receive the TZ350 unit, you will need to register it with SonicWall through your MySonicWall account. Many do not realize this and think the unit is defective. The Global Client license is a license that you download through the same MySonicWall account the unit is registered in.

If you have any further questions, feel free to call me.

Thank you for the opportunity and privilege of serving you!

Question 3

We are going to upgrade from a Sonic Wall 100.  Can we export the configuation from the old model to this new one?

Accepted Answer

Hello Julie,
Though it may be possible (no guarantee) to export the configuration from the TZ100 to the new TZ350, we and SonicWall highly suggests to export those configuration for you to review and then do a manual configuration with the TZ350. There reason being is...

1) The OS is completely different. Multiple revisions different.
2) There would be no guarantee that anything would export or work properly.
3) There are features in the new TZ350 that may interfere or that you may want to activate during the configuration process.
4) You will have to go through it anyway to verify all settings were exported correctly and not changed, so you might as well do a manual configuration.

NOTE: The SKU 02-SSC-0942 you are considering is a hardware only appliance and does NOT include any security or support services. If you desire security and support services then consider one of the below upgrade SKUs.
