Associating Pre-Registered Appliances

To associate two already-registered SonicWALL security
appliances so that they can use HA license synchronization,
perform the following steps:
1. Login to MySonicWALL and click My Products.
2. On the My Products page, under Registered Products,
scroll down to find the appliance that you want to use as
the parent, or primary, unit. Click the product name or
serial number.
3. On the Service Management page, scroll down to the
Associated Products section.
4. Under Associated Products, click HA Secondary.
5. On the My Product - Associated Products page, in the text
boxes under Associate New Products, type the serial
number and the friendly name of the appliance that you
want to associate as the secondary/backup unit.
6. Select the group from the Product Group drop-down list.
The product group setting specifies the MySonicWALL
users who can upgrade or modify the appliance.
7. Click Register.

Disabling PortShield Before Configuring HA

The HA feature can only be enabled if PortShield is disabled on
all interfaces of both the Primary and Backup appliances. You
can disable PortShield either by using the PortShield Wizard,
or manually from the Network > PortShield Groups page.
