This guide will show you how to setup a VPN for someone on the Sonicwall. This method can also be used to change their VPN password.


  1. Login to the SONICWALL router.

  2. On the left hand side click on "Users" and then "Local Users & Groups".

  3. This will then load the list of users who can use the VPN. Click on "Add".

  4. Ensure "Name" is the same as their login username e.g. s.rahman. Enter the same password they use to login to their PC. You can enter an email address but it is not necessary.

     

  5. Click on the "Groups" tab and ensure they are a member of "Everyone, SSLVPN Services and Trusted Users".

  6. Click on the "VPN Access" tab and ensure they are on the "LAN Subnets" list. Then click ok

That is all, they are now setup to have access to the VPN. You will need to ensure they know how to use the Sonicwall Net Extender to dial the VPN.
