How to update location of firewall in NSM!

Description

The Dashboard provides a visual status of the security infrastructure. It provides us a visual view of the firewall's status, traffic distribution, and threats to know whether you have issues and where to focus to resolve them.

Sometimes the location of the firewalls doesn't match up to their current location.

We can follow the steps defined below to correct the location.

Resolution

1. Login to NSM using cloud.sonicwall.com.

2. Go to Manager View-->Firewalls-->Inventory-->Click on Action tab for the firewall in question-->Update Location.
