configured, the SonicWALL begins to count IP addresses against the license, and continues
to count new LAN IP addresses accessing the Internet until the appliance is rebooted.
When a computer or other device connects to the LAN port of the SonicWALL, it is detected
via broadcast and stores the computer or other device IP address in memory. If 5, 10, or
50 IP addresses have been stored in the SonicWALL, the SonicWALL does not permit any
additional machines to access the Internet. Therefore, the SonicWALL restricts the number
of IP addresses on the LAN, not the number of simultaneous connections to the Internet.
If you have fewer than the maximum number of computers or other devices on your LAN,
but it appears that the IP license limit is exceeded, download a
Tech Support Report and
review the devices with IP addresses. Rogue devices such as printers are filling up the
SonicWALL IP address limit.
Tech Support Reports are explained in the Tools chapter
of this manual.
Additionally, computers with two (2) Network Interface Cards (NIC) can take up two IP
addresses. You must reconfigure your network to avoid these problems by turning off IP
forwarding on Windows
®
NT or Windows2000
®
servers using two NICs.
If devices on the LAN receive IP addresses from a DHCP server, see the DHCP chapter of
this manual.
