Creating a MySonicWall Account

A MySonicWall account is required to obtain the OVA file for initial installation of the NSv virtual machine, for product registration to enable full functionality of SonicOS/X features, and for access to licensed security services. For a High Availability configuration, MySonicWall provides a way to associate a secondary NSv that can share security service licenses with your primary virtual machine.

MySonicWall registration information is not sold or shared with any other company.
