Dealer does not have a wall-mount bracket with this sink. I'm told to just use lag bolts. I don't believe them. This thing is heavy! Is there a bracket I can find. Is it an almost universal thing?

It looks like it's designed to use a standard "old school" adjustable lavatory mounting bracket:
I would fasten it at the lower holes as well.

I'm hoping they didn't just mean lag bolts only. You'd want to at least put as big & thick as a washer that will fit in there under the lag bolts...spray painted to match of course. This spreads the load on the china, the more meat the better.
Get the Lags into the structure's framing or you may have to add a 2x10 piece of lumber as your backsplash that spans the framing. Otherwise, you'd take out the wall & put the 2x10 in the wall to then attach the sink.
It doesn't look like your sink would accommodate anything but washers, but here's what's in the Home Improvement Stores, if you notice any matching slots, indentations or other screw holes at the back or the underside. These might be able to supplement the lag support as well.
