Page 54 Configuring a SonicWALL SSL-VPN 2000 for Management
The new SonicWALL appliance displays in the left pane of the
SonicWALL GMS interface as a yellow icon, which means the
unit has not been acquired by SonicWALL GMS. After the
appliance has been acquired, the icon will either turn red,
indicating that the appliance status is down, or blue, indicating
that the appliance status is up. You can view the status of the
acquisition process in the System > Status screen of the
managed appliance available in the center pane of the
SonicWALL GMS management interface. You will need to
refresh the screen by clicking the Status link in the center pane.
For detailed managed appliance icon descriptions, refer to the
table in the Description of Managed Appliance States section,
on page 46.
It may take up to five minutes for SonicWALL GMS to establish
a management VPN tunnel, set up an HTTPS connection, or
use the existing site-to-site VPN tunnel to access the managed
appliance and acquire it for management. For SonicWALL GMS
appliance acquisition troubleshooting, refer to the SonicWALL
GMS Administrator’s Guide.
When the appliance has been acquired, the configuration
settings will be displayed at the unit level, and the settings will
be saved to the database.
Your SonicWALL NSA 2400 is now ready for management
using SonicWALL GMS.
