Connecting the SonicWALL CSM to Your Network
Connect the SonicWALL CSM between your LAN and your firewall/security appliance,
allowing it to filter content requests from the LAN before they pass through the firewall/
security appliance. This step contains the following procedures:
• “Connecting the Ethernet Cables” on page 15
• “Testing Your Connectivity” on page 15
• “Adding Static Routes” on page 16

Alert: Do not connect the SonicWALL CSM to your network until you have configured
the X0 and X1 interfaces. Refer to “Configuring Your SonicWALL CSM Using the
Setup Wizard” on page 9.
Note: Before you connect the SonicWALL CSM to your network, reconfigure the TCP/
IP address properties of your out-of-band management station to the original IP
address and subnet mask settings.
