Getting Started Guide
This Getting Started Guide contains installation procedures and
configuration guidelines for deploying a SonicWALL Continuous
Data Protection (CDP) appliance into an existing or new
network.
The SonicWALL CDP appliance backs up data as changes
occur or on a schedule. Data is backed up first to your local
SonicWALL CDP appliance, and then optionally to a secure
offsite location*. This real-time data protection provides the
most current file and system backup possible. By combining the
advantages of local disk-based backup (fast recovery) with
offsite backup, the SonicWALL CDP appliance provides
excellent protection against data loss.
Please read this entire Getting Started Guide before setting up
your SonicWALL CDP 6080/6080B appliance.
Note: For more detailed technical documentation, refer to the
SonicWALL CDP Administrator’s Guide
and the
SonicWALL CDP Agent User’s Guide at:

*Offsite backup is offered as a subscription-based service.
