SonicWALL Will Not Open Port
Your Web server's public HTTP address must be bound to the Wide Area Network zone for Internet users to easily access it behind SonicWALL, so if SonicWALL won't open a port, check how it's set up. The best way to configure a public server is to use the Public Server Wizard. Port setup options -- including Zone Access rules, Loopback, Inbound and Outbound Network Address Translation policies, and the required Address Objects -- are automatically configured based on the choices you make.
