Activating Licenses in SonicOS
After completing the registration process in SonicOS, you must
perform the following tasks to activate your licenses and enable
your licensed services from within the SonicOS user interface:
•
Activate licenses
•
Enable security services
•
Apply services to network zones
To activate licensed services in SonicOS, you can enter the
license keyset manually, or you can synchronize all licenses at
once with MySonicWALL.
The Setup Wizard automatically synchronizes all licenses with
MySonicWALL if the appliance has Internet access during initial
setup. If initial setup is already complete, you can synchronize
licenses from the System > Licenses page.
Manual upgrade using the license keyset is useful when your
appliance is not connected to the Internet. The license keyset
includes all license keys for services or software enabled on
MySonicWALL. It is available on
the top of the Service Management page for your SonicWALL
NSA appliance.
