The Power LED on the front panel lights up blue when you plug
in the SonicWALL NSA. The Alarm LED may light up and the
Test LED will light up and may blink while the appliance
performs a series of diagnostic tests.
When the Power LEDs are lit and the Test LED is no longer lit,
the SonicWALL NSA is ready for configuration. This typically
occurs within a few minutes of applying power to the appliance.
Note:
If the Test or Alarm LEDs remain lit after the
SonicWALL NSA appliance has been booted, restart
the appliance by cycling power.

must be set up to have an unused IP address on the
192.168.168.x/24 subnet, such as 192.168.168.20.
To access the SonicOS Enhanced Web-based management
interface:
