Before You Register
You need a MySonicWALL account to register the Dell 
SonicWALL NSA E6500. You can create a new MySonicWALL 
account on 
 or directly from the Dell 
SonicWALL management interface. This section describes how 
to create an account by using the Web site. 
You can use MySonicWALL to register your Dell SonicWALL 
appliance and activate or purchase licenses for Security 
Services, Analyzer 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 to associate a secondary unit that can share the 
Security Services licenses with your primary appliance.
Note: Your NSA E6500 does not need to be powered on 
during account creation or during the MySonicWALL 
registration and licensing process.
Note: After registering a new Dell SonicWALL appliance on 
MySonicWALL, you must also register the appliance 
from the SonicOS management interface. This allows 
the unit to synchronize with the License Server and to 
share licenses with the associated appliance, if any.
