the SMA/SRA appliance does not support other types such as SCO-ANSI yet. This could be supported in a
future firmware release.
54 There is no port option for the service bookmarks – what if these are on a different port than the default?
Answer
: You can specify in the IP address box an ‘IPaddress:portid’ pair for HTTP, HTTPS, Telnet, Java,
and VNC.
55 What if I want a bookmark to point to a directory on a Web server?
Answer:
Add the path in the IP address box: IP/mydirectory/.
56 When I access Microsoft Telnet Server using a telnet bookmark it does not allow me to enter a user name
-- why?
Answer:
This is not currently supported on the appliance.

58 What applications are supported using Application Offloading?
Answer
: Application Offloading should support any application using HTTP/HTTPS. SMA/SRA has limited
support for applications using Web services and no support for non-HTTP protocols wrapped within HTTP.
One key aspect to consider when using Application Offloading is that the application should not contain
hard-coded self-referencing URLs. If these are present, the Application Offloading proxy rewrites the
URLs. Because Web site development does not usually conform to HTML standards, the proxy can only do
a best-effort translation when rewriting these URLs. Specifying hard-coded, self-referencing URLs is not
recommended when developing a Web site because content developers must modify the Web pages
whenever the hosting server is moved to a different IP or hostname.
For example, if the backend application has a hard-coded IP and scheme within URLs as follows, then
Application Off-loading needs to rewrite this URL.
<a href="
http://1.1.1.1/doAction.cgi?test=foo
This can be done by enabling the
Enable URL Rewriting for self-referenced URLs
setting for the
Application Off-loading Portal, but all the URLs might not be rewritten, depending on how the Web
application has been developed. (This limitation is usually the same for other WAF/SMA vendors
employing reverse proxy mode.)
59 Is SSHv2 supported?
Answer
: Yes, this is supported.
60 Should I create a Global Deny ALL policy?
Answer:
Yes, Dell SonicWALL recommends that administrators set up a Global Deny ALL policy that
allows access to only trusted hosts. This prevents outbound requests to malicious hosts from Secure
Mobile Access. For more information on how to set up a Global Deny ALL policy, see
