  Before You Register  
Before You Register
You need a mysonicwall.com account to register the 
SonicWALL NSA appliance. You can create a new 
mysonicwall.com account on 
from the SonicWALL management interface. This section 
describes how to create an account by using the Web site. 
You can use mysonicwall.com to register your SonicWALL 
appliance and activate or purchase licenses for Security 
Services, ViewPoint Reporting and other services, support, or 
software before you even connect your device. This allows you 
to prepare for your deployment before making any changes to 
your existing network. 
For a High Availability configuration, you must use 
mysonicwall.com to associate a backup unit that can share the 
Security Services licenses with your primary SonicWALL.
Note:
Your SonicWALL NSA appliance does not need to be 
powered on during account creation or during the 
mysonicwall.com registration and licensing process.
Note:
After registering a new SonicWALL appliance on 
mysonicwall.com, you must also register the appliance 
from the SonicOS management interface. This allows 
the unit to synchronize with the SonicWALL License 
Server and to share licenses with the associated 
appliance, if any. See 
.
If you already have a mysonicwall.com account, go to 
 
to register your appliance on mysonicwall.com.
