The broadcast-sonicwall-discover.nse script discovers Sonicwall firewalls which are directly attached (not routed) using the same method as the manufacturers own 'SetupTool'. An interface needs to be configured, as the script broadcasts a UDP packet.

The script needs to be run as a privileged user, typically root.
