You may also want to consider having an experienced networking professional help you. These are pretty common items and you can find them on amazon.

For that, you may need a USB-to-RS232 adapter for your computer and a cable compatible with the Sonicwall. If you have disabled SSH in your configuration, you'll need to use the serial console port. If that did not help, you can access the CLI via SSH (see 1 and 2). But it won't hurt to boot up Safe Mode and explore, since you can just restart there without any side effects of starting Safe Mode. AFAIK you can NOT edit an existing configuration from Safe Mode, and there's no internal storage of previous configs that you can access from Safe Mode.

If you have a config saved off-device that you could cut & paste in via console, you are able to replace your Sonicwall config with the backed-up config via Safe Mode. If a reactivation via web UI without factory reset is not possible, can I do that via an SSH management session via ethernet? If I remember correctly, the WAN interface only had ping and https management activated (so no ssh if that is an option - I cannot remember). Since I did not configure my Sonicwall myself, I would prefer to avoid a factory reset since I do not know how to configure it for my network, and do not know whether a backup of the configuration was made.ĭo I have web UI access in safe mode, and can I reactivate http(s) management in safe mode? I do have physical access to my Sonicwall.ĭo I have the Sonicwall web UI iff http(s) management is activated? What is the easiest way to regain access to the configuration management? I cannot access and configure my Sonicwall Soho 250 through the web UI any longer :( I deactivated https and now I am locked out, i.e. I am a newb and misconfigures my Sonicwall Soho 250 it has two Interfaces configured: Fritzbox without any management activated, and WAN, where only ping and https management was activated.
