Setup Options

Setup using Local Management

Set up and manage your NSsp by connecting it to a management computer via Ethernet cable. To minimize scrolling, set your screen resolution to at least 1920 x 1080 pixels.

Setup using Cloud Management

Use SonicWall Capture Security Center (CSC) and Network Security Manager (NSM) with Zero Touch to manage and configure your NSsp from the cloud.

Setup using SonicExpress App

Use SonicWall SonicExpress on your smartphone to register and configure your NSsp

Note: After initial setup and registration, be sure to download the latest firmware from MySonicWall and upgrade your NSsp. Your appliance must be registered to download the latest firmware from MySonicWall.

Initial Setup and Registration Using Local Management

1. Configure your computer with a static IP address in the 192.168.1.x subnet, such as 192.168.1.100, and set the network mask to 255.255.255.0.

2. Using the provided Ethernet cable, connect the MGMT interface to your computer.

3. Navigate to https://192.168.1.254 in your web browser and log in with the default credentials:
   Username: admin
   Password: password
   

4. Launch the Setup Guide wizard or manually configure the NSsp to configure your WAN interface, change the admin password, and select other settings.

5. After completing the setup wizard, reconfigure your computer to automatically obtain an IP address and DNS server address, or set it to the appropriate static network settings.

6. Connect your computer to the LAN or WAN network and log into SonicOS/X. The LAN provides a DHCP IP address to your computer. The default LAN IP address is https://192.168.168.168.
   NOTE: You cannot reach the internet or other external destinations while connected to the MGMT interface without first configuring a default gateway in its interface settings.

7. Click Register and enter your MySonicWall credentials to register your NSsp.

TIP: Registering the appliance from SonicOS/X requires that DNS settings are configured for the WAN interface. For DHCP WAN type, DNS is set automatically.

NOTE: This option requires a Cloud Management license

1. Log into CSC at cloud.sonicwall.com using your MySonicWall credentials.
2. Select the MySonicWall tile to register your NSsp.
