Transitioning to WatchGuard SSL VPN
Following our earlier communication regarding the upcoming discontinuation of SonicWall SRA on October 31, 2025, we are moving forward with WatchGuard SSL VPN as a secure solution for remote access. This will provide you a secure connection from your work computer to the remote desktop experience you were previously utilizing.
What This Means for You
Timeline
Employees currently using SonicWall SRA will transition to WatchGuard SSL VPN before the October 31, 2025 cutoff date.
Deployment
Premier One is deploying WG SSLVPN directly on company computers with minimal disruption to your workflow. Please test your setup before 31 October.
Next Steps
Our team has deployed WatchGuard SSL VPN on applicable devices. If you have questions or require immediate assistance with remote access planning, please contact us at help@premier-one.com.
