How to Configure Sonicwall Soho3

SonicWALL's Internet security appliances provide a secure barrier between your network and the World Wide Web to protect you from Internet security threats. To configure your SonicWALL SOHO3, you'll need to determine how your Internet Service Provider (ISP) distributes IP addresses. Contact your ISP to find out if your Internet connection uses DHCP to obtain an IP address, or PPPoE, or if they have given you a static IP address.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
