About this tag
The network security manager tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussion of SonicWall's Network Security Manager (NSM) and the migration path away from its end-of-life Global Management System (GMS) console. The tagged content focuses on SonicWall's disclosure of two GMS vulnerabilities, CVE-2026-109593 and CVE-2026-109594, which the vendor declined to patch because GMS has reached end of life.

This makes the tag most relevant to administrators planning a console migration or tracking the security implications of running unsupported management software.
