Licensing Application Intelligence and
Control
In SonicOS 5.8 and higher, Application Intelligence and
Application Control are available as licensed services.
• The Intelligence component is licensed as App
Visualization, and provides identification and reporting of
application traffic on the Dashboard > Real-Time Monitor and
App Flow Monitor pages.
• The Control component is licensed as App Control, and
allows you to create and enforce custom App Control and App
Rules policies for logging, blocking, and bandwidth
management of application traffic handled by your network.
Application Visualization and App Control are licensed together
in a bundle with other security services including Dell
SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus (GAV), Anti-Spyware, and
Intrusion Prevention Service (IPS).
Note: Upon registration on MySonicWALL, or when you load
SonicOS 5.8 onto a registered Dell SonicWALL
appliance, supported Dell SonicWALL appliances
begin an automatic 30-day trial license for App
Visualization and App Control, and application
signatures are downloaded to the appliance.
Once the App Visualization feature is manually enabled on the
Log > Flow Reporting page by selecting the Enable Flow
Reporting and Visualization checkbox, you can view real-time
application traffic on the Dashboard > Real-Time Monitor
page and application activity in other Dashboard pages for the
identified/classified flows from the Dell SonicWALL application
signature database.
To begin using App Control, select the Enable App Control
checkbox on the Firewall > App Control Advanced page.
To create policies using App Rules, which is included with the
App Control license, select Enable App Rules on the
Firewall > App Rules page.
The Dell SonicWALL Licensing server provides the App
Visualization and App Control license keys to the Dell
SonicWALL appliance when you begin a 30-day trial (upon
registration) or purchase a Security Services license bundle.
