  Registering and Licensing Your Appliance on mysonicwall.com  
Registering a Second Appliance as a Backup
To ensure that your network stays protected if your SonicWALL 
appliance has an unexpected failure, you can associate a 
second SonicWALL of the same model as the first in a high 
availability (HA) pair. You can associate the two appliances as 
part of the registration process on mysonicwall.com. This 
feature is enabled on the NSA 5000 and NSA 4500 appliances, 
but requires a separate license to be enabled on the NSA 3500. 
The second SonicWALL will automatically share the Security 
Services licenses of the primary appliance.
To register a second appliance and associate it with the 
primary, perform the following steps:
1.
Login to your mysonicwall.com account. 
2.
On the main page, in the Register A Product field, type 
the appliance serial number and then click Next.
3.
On the My Products page, under Add New Product, type 
the friendly name for the appliance, select the Product 
Group if any, type the authentication code into the 
appropriate text boxes, and then click Register.
4.
On the Product Survey page, fill in the requested 
information and then click Continue. The Create 
Association Page is displayed. 
5.
On the Create Association Page, click the radio button to 
select the primary unit for this association, and then click 
Continue. The screen only displays units that are not 
already associated with other appliances.
6.
On the Service Management - Associated Products page, 
scroll down to the Associated Products section to verify 
that your product registered successfully. You should see 
the HA Primary unit listed in the Parent Product section, as 
well as a Status value of 0 in the Associated Products / 
Child Product Type section.
7.
Although the Stateful High Availability Upgrade and all the 
Security Services licenses can be shared with the HA 
Primary unit, you must purchase a separate ViewPoint 
license for the backup unit. This will ensure that you do not 
miss any reporting data in the event of a failover. Under 
DESKTOP & SERVER SOFTWARE, click Buy Now for 
ViewPoint. Follow the instructions to complete the 
purchase.
To return to the Service Management - Associated Products 
page, click the serial number link for this appliance.
