It includes built-in VPN capabilities (IPSec and SSL VPN) to connect branch offices securely and enable remote user access. The device can be deployed in a distributed enterprise model with automatic failover and dynamic routing in mind, helping maintain business continuity even during WAN disruptions.
- Intuitive management and visibility – Centralized management is a core strength of the TZ370. It integrates with SonicWall’s Capture Security Center for consolidated policy management, real-time analytics, and comprehensive reporting. The user-friendly web-based interface enables quick deployment, policy tuning, and ongoing monitoring of threats, VPN status, and network health—all from a single pane of glass.
