Registering a TZ Appliance

Registration is an important part of the setup process and is necessary in order to receive the benefits of SonicWall security services, firmware updates, and technical support.

To register the appliance from SonicOS

  1. Continue from the Setup Guide or point your browser to the appliance LAN IP address (default https://192.168.168.168) and log in using the administrator credentials.

  2. Click Register in the top banner or on the MONITOR | Current Status | System Status page under Security Services.

Registering the appliance from SonicOS requires that DNS Server settings are configured on the WAN (X1) interface.

  1. Log in using your MySonicWall account name and password. If you do not have a MySonicWall account, go to http://www.mysonicwall.com to create an account.

  2. MySonicWall directly obtains the necessary information from the appliance. When finished, a message that the registration has been completed appears. Click CONTINUE.
