Applying Power to the SonicWALL CSM
To apply power to your SonicWALL CSM appliance:
1. Plug the power cord into the back panel of the SonicWALL CSM and into an
appropriate power outlet.
2. Turn on the SonicWALL CSM appliance using the On/Off switch located on the back
panel of the appliance.
The Power LED shines green when you activate the power switch. The Test LED and
Alarm LED light up and may blink while the appliance performs a series of diagnostic
tests. When the Test LED and Alarm LED are no longer lit, the SonicWALL
CSM is ready
for configuration.
