When uploading firmware to the SonicWALL security appliance, you must not interrupt the 
Web browser by closing the browser, clicking a link, or loading a new page. If the browser 
is interrupted, the firmware may become corrupted.

Click Upload New Firmware to upload new firmware to the SonicWALL security appliance. The 
Upload Firmware window is displayed. Browse to the firmware file located on your local drive. 
Click Upload to upload the new firmware to the SonicWALL security appliance.

When you click Create Backup, the SonicWALL security appliance takes a “snapshot” of your 
current system state, firmware and configuration preferences, and makes it the new System 
Backup firmware image. Clicking Create Backup overwrites the existing System Backup 
firmware image as necessary.

SafeMode allows easy firmware and preferences management as well as quick recovery from 
uncertain configuration states. To access the SonicWALL security appliance using SafeMode, 
use a narrow, straight object (such as a straightened paper clip or a toothpick) to press and hold 
the reset button on the back of the security appliance for more than twenty seconds. The reset 
button is in a small hole next to the console port or next to the power supply.

Holding the reset button for two seconds will take a diagnostic snapshot to the console. 
Holding the reset button for six to eight seconds will reboot the appliance in regular mode.
