Capture Client – Migrate local CMC user login to MySonicWall account login

Please note that local login to standalone Capture Client Management consoles will be deprecated in next few months. To continue accessing the Capture Client Management console, users will need to login to SonicWall Unified Management platform using a MySonicWall user account. If you cannot login to Unified Management with your account, please reach out to SonicWall Support.
