Question : VPN problems: SonicWall TZ 180 to TZ 210

I'm having quite a bit of trouble configuring a VPN across two Sonic walls without getting a ton of log errors.

Environment:
Sonicwall TZ210
SonicOS Enhanced 5.1.3.0-31o
Address 192.168.10.1
Subnet 192.168.10.x

SonicWall TZ 180 wireless
SonicOS Standard 3.9.0.0-5s
Address 192.168.11.1
Subnet 192.168.11.x

I did manage to get the VPN established but it is extremely slow and both sides are generating log errors which I will address momentarily but my first question is

How do I manage the Sonicwall TZ180 @ 192.168.11.1 from a computer behind the TZ210 on the 192.168.10.x subnet???  I can't find the setting in the SA....which is established., just not very well.

I can manage the TZ 210 (192.168.10.1) from a PC behind the TZ 180 on the 11.x subnet no problem.  But I can't manage the TZ 180 from a PC behind the TZ 210

This is the first priory before I begin addressing the VPN log errors and speed issues because this will greatly facilitate management if I can manage both Sonicwall from the same machine.

thanks.

No, you shouldn't have to add the static route.  The problem here the LAN network the TZ180 is reporting to the tz210 is different than the destination network the 210 has configured for its SA.  I don't know why.  At this point, to me, it would seem a call to sw support is in order or an upgrade of the appliance.  The interface of the 180 seems extremely outdated...likened to the SOHO OS from several years ago.

It should work, I don't know why it doesn't.  I feel like we've tried everything.  Seems simple the solution, but I'm just not seeing it.
