SonicOS 8 Cloud Secure Edge Feature Guide

Cloud Secure Edge Integration with SonicOS

Cloud Secure Edge (CSE) offers two edge deployment models to access your organization's private resources: Self-hosted Private Edge and Global Edge Network. SonicOS 8 and later supports the Global Edge Network deployment type. With this new capability, any organization can deploy SonicOS 8 as a Cloud Secure Edge Connector. The Connector is a dial-out connector that establishes a secure tunnel with CSE's Global Edge Network. It can be deployed in any location with connectivity to your internal services. There will be no change to the control plane. The Cloud Command Center always delivered as a cloud Software-As-A-Service (SaaS) offering. For more information on Cloud Secure Edge, refer to the CSE documentation.

To use the CSE feature, the user must do the following:

  1. Provision a trial or purchased CSE product in MySonicWall (creates an organization). Refer to the section Activating Cloud Secure Edge in MySonicWall.

  2. Enable the CSE Connector on a firewall running SonicOS 8 or higher. Refer to the section Configuring Cloud Secure Edge.

  3. Configure Private Access: SonicOS needs to publish the networks, IP Addresses, and Private Domains (optional) for the CSE clients. Refer to the section Configuring Cloud Secure Edge in SonicWall Firewall.

  4. Configure access control rules in the CSE (not on the SonicWall firewall). Refer to the section Configuring Access Control Rules on the CSE Console.

  5. Enable the Connector. Refer to the section Configuring the Connector.

  6. Manage Connectivity: To show the status of TSR, Packet Capture, and Logs. Refer to the section Viewing Cloud Secure Edge Connector Log events.
