HA License Configuration Overview
You can configure HA license synchronization by associating
two Dell SonicWALL security appliances as HA Primary and HA
Secondary on MySonicWALL.
You must purchase a single set of security service licenses for
the HA Primary appliance. To use Stateful HA, you must first
activate the Stateful High Availability Upgrade license for the
primary unit in SonicOS. This is automatic if your appliance is
connected to the Internet. See Registering, Licensing, and
Upgrading, page 21.
License synchronization is used during HA so that the
Secondary appliance can maintain the same level of network
protection provided before the failover.
Completing HA Pair Association
You will need to associate the two appliances on
MySonicWALL. The second appliance will automatically share
the Security Services licenses of the primary appliance.
If the second appliance has not yet been registered, follow the
steps listed in Registering on MySonicWALL, page 24 to
register it.This is necessary to make it available for HA
association with the Primary.
