Wireless Radio Mode

The Radio Role allows you to configure the SonicWall TZ wireless for one of two modes:

* 
NOTE: Be aware that when switching between radio roles, the SonicWall appliance may require a restart.
•
Access Point - Configures the SonicWall appliance as an Internet/network gateway for wireless clients.

Wireless Radio Mode: Access point

•
Wireless Client Bridge - The SonicWall TZ wireless provides Internet/network access by bridging wirelessly to another SonicWall wireless device or SonicPoint access point, selected on the Wireless > Status screen. This mode allows for the possibility of secure network communications between physically separate locations, without the need for long and costly ethernet cabling runs.
