Configuring a SonicWall Firewall with RingQ
Introduction
This document describes the configuration of Dell SonicWall firewall devices for use with RingQ. The guide applies to SonicWall firewalls configured using Many-to-One NAT. Please note that we cannot help with the configuration of your firewall.
Create Service Objects
To configure the SonicWall, you need to create the service objects for each Port or Port range that needs to be forwarded. Then place these service objects in a service group after which you must apply the policies.
- In section “Services” add one service object for each port that RingQ requires forwarding for.
- In section “Service Groups” add a new service group named “RingQ Services” and add all of the above Service Objects as members.
- Here add a new Address Object and set:
- Name: RingQ PBX
