Overview
Today’s highly connected organizations move vast amounts of critical data across
extensive, often complex network deployments. The value of this data is
extraordinary – as is the need to move it quickly, reliably and securely. To
maintain and safeguard business continuity, network administrators require a
solution that gives them the ability to configure their network architecture to
meet the needs of their organization, while continuing to deliver advanced
features and powerful performance tailored for fast-moving network environments.
The SonicWALL PRO 2040 is part of SonicWALL's PRO Series, delivering complete
business continuity for small to mid-sized networks. With integrated support for
SonicWALL's Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware and Intrusion Prevention Service,
the PRO 2040 provides real-time protection against viruses, spyware, worms,
Trojans and other malicious threats. The PRO 2040 also combines built-in
anti-spam protection and support for SonicWALL's Content Filtering Service to
provide enhanced productivity and network utilization. Powered by SonicWALL's
next-generation SonicOS operating system and a high-performance hardware
architecture, the PRO 2040 delivers business-class firewall throughput and VPN
concentration. Outstanding price/value features make the PRO 2040 the ideal
solution for businesses that need rock solid network protection coupled with
fast, secure VPN access for remote employees.
Available as an optional upgrade for the PRO 2040, SonicWALL's feature-rich
SonicOS Enhanced operating system provides a suite of configuration flexibility
and redundancy features typically associated with more expensive appliances,
including ISP Failover, WAN Redundancy, Load Balancing, Object-based Management,
Policy-based NAT and more. In addition, upgrading to SonicOS Enhanced activates
a fourth, user-defined 10/100 Ethernet interface that can be custom-configured
either as a second WAN, a second LAN, a DMZ, another customized security zone or
as a Hardware Failover port, ensuring continuous network uptime. With its
innovative Web interface, the PRO 2040 is the ultimate choice for
small-to-mid-sized networks requiring robust internal and external security,
network configuration flexibility and ease of use.

The PRO 2040 can be easily managed remotely as part of a multi-firewall and VPN
environment through a Web interface or using SonicWALL’s industry-leading Global
Management System (GMS). This gives network administrators an economical yet
powerful set of tools for rapid deployment, configuration, and management of
global security policies from a central location.

Key Features & Benefits
Every SonicWALL PRO 2040 ships with SonicOS Standard and includes:
Real-Time Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware and Intrusion Prevention. The PRO
2040 extends security from the network core to the perimeter by integrating
support for SonicWALL's Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware and Intrusion
Prevention Service, delivering real-time protection against the latest blended
threats, including viruses, spyware, worms, Trojans, software vulnerabilities
and other malicious code.***
Powerful Content Filtering. The PRO 2040 supports SonicWALL's Content Filtering
Service, providing an enterprise-class, scalable content filtering service that
enhances productivity and security without requiring additional server or
deployment costs.
Deep Packet Inspection Firewall. The PRO 2040 features a configurable, high
performance deep packet inspection firewall for extended protection to key
Internet services such as Web, e-mail, file transfer, Windows services, and DNS.
Hardware AES Support. The SonicWALL PRO 2040 reflects SonicWALL's commitment to
open security standards by including hardware-based acceleration support for the
3DES and AES encryption algorithms.
Dynamic DNS. The SonicWALL PRO 2040 includes Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS)
support, which drastically reduces the costs associated with hosting e-mail
servers, Web servers and site-to-site VPN by allowing the use of dynamic IP
addresses.***
Comprehensive Central Management Support. Every SonicWALL Internet security
appliance can be managed using SonicWALL's award-winning Global Management
System, which provides network administrators with the tools for simplified
configuration, enforcement and management of global security policies, VPN, and
services, all from a central location.
An optional software upgrade for the SonicWALL PRO 2040, SonicOS Enhanced adds:
Real-Time Blacklist Spam Filtering. The PRO 2040 provides the ability to use DNS
to query Real-Time Black List (RBL) services that track well-known spam and
open-relay SMTP servers, and to deny SMTP connections from servers that appear
on the lists.**
Flexible Fourth Port. Upgrading to SonicOS Enhanced activates a fourth
user-assigned port on the SonicWALL PRO 2040 that can be configured either as an
additional LAN, WAN or DMZ, or as a Hardware Failover port, offering greater
network configuration flexibility.
Integrated Wireless LAN Services. In addition to being an integrated firewall
and VPN security appliance, the PRO 2040 functions as a secure wireless switch
and controller that automatically detects and configures SonicPoints, SonicWALL
wireless access points, as they are added to the network while simultaneously
enforcing security policies on all wired and wireless traffic.
ISP Failover. The SonicWALL PRO 2040 ensures continuous uptime for Internet and
IPSec VPN connectivity by failing over to a second ISP link should the primary
link fail. Through ISP Failover, the PRO 2040 delivers highly reliable network
connectivity for constant access to critical data.
WAN Redundancy and Load Balancing. The SonicWALL PRO 2040 offers the ability to
configure a secondary WAN port, delivering highly reliable network connectivity
and robust performance. This secondary WAN port can be used in “active-active”
load sharing or fail-over configuration providing a highly efficient method for
maximizing total network bandwidth.
Object-based Management. The SonicWALL PRO 2040 provides the ability to define
an object such as a user group, network address range, service or interface.
When security policies change, the administrator can modify the pre-defined
object and propagate the changes instantly without redefining rules, enabling
businesses to implement and manage security policies easily and consistently.
Multiple Interfaces per Security Zone. Network administrators can group multiple
physical interfaces on the SonicWALL PRO 2040 into logical "zones" for ease of
management and flexibility. This provides tremendous flexibility, scalability
and added internal security when deploying SonicWALL firewalls in various
network topologies.
Policy-based NAT. In addition to NAT (many-to-one) functionality, the SonicWALL
PRO 2040 exposes control of NAT policies to administrators for one-to-one NAT,
many-to-many NAT, one-to-many NAT, inbound Port Address Translation (PAT),
flexible NAT (for overlapping IP addresses), as well as NAT policies on
selective source/destination/source translations. The result is greater control
and flexibility to support and manage various NAT requirements.
