TZ/X-Series Solution: a unified approach
Critical network elements, such as a firewall and switch, need to be managed, usually individually. The Dell™
SonicWALL™ X-Series Solution allows unified management of both the firewall and the switch using the firewall
management interface (UI) and GMS. For example, the maximum number of interfaces available on the Dell
SonicWALL TZ models range from 5 (TZ300) to 10 (TZ600). In certain deployments, the number of ports required
might easily exceed the maximum number of interfaces available on the TZ appliance. With the TZ/X-Series
Solution, ports on a Dell X-Series switch can be viewed as extended interfaces of the firewall, thereby
increasing the number of interfaces available for use up to 96, depending on the X-Series switch. These
extended ports can be portshielded or configured for high availability and treated as any other interface on the
firewall.
