Overview

Wireless Network Manager

One cloud dashboard for every SonicWall access point and switch on site — onboarding, policy, firmware, topology and analytics, without a hardware controller.

What it replaces

A wireless controller, and the rack space and firmware schedule that come with it. Wireless Network Manager runs in SonicWall’s cloud as part of the Capture Security Center, so the access points and switches report to it directly rather than to a box on site. If the internet link drops the devices keep forwarding; only the management view goes away. It scales from a single site to tens of thousands of managed devices across multiple tenants.
