I have a Sonic-wall Firewall with there sonic-point AP.. They are horrible and want replace with Cisco 1850 AP.

I have purchased a Cisco 3560cx w poe and want a basic config that will integrate with the sonic-wall firewall.

Setup would have to SSID

vlan 15 private network on windows server with dhcp,dns and such services 192.1681.x

Vlan 25 Guest network switch would handout DHCP for this network 172.16.x.x

Firewall resides at 192.168.1.1

Any help would be appreciated

From the AP connected port side it will depend on if you are running Mobility Express using multiple VLANs or not.

Check out this deployment guide:

Around the rest of the switch config you will need to configure the VLANs and SVIs for your required networks:

Guest, Management, Corporate traffic etc

If the Guest traffic is going to route through the firewall, you will either need to utilise layer 3 on the switch to route the traffic to it or use the firewall as a trunk so the gateway for all VLANs live on it.

You might get some better understanding of the switch side in the switching forum area around the basic config template and sonic firewall.
