AV: How to setup license sharing for enforced Anti-Virus
Resolution
Creating and editing share groups in SonicOS
This document explains the basic process of sharing licenses on the Sonicwall Appliance.
Step 1: Ensure that the Client Anti-Virus status is Licensed on the System > Licenses page. If licenses are shown incorrectly, click Synchronize button on Security Services > Summary page.
Note: If this does not show the correct license, please contact SonicWall Technical Support.
Step 2: To manage the existing licenses, go to Security Services > Summary page and click on the Manage Licenses button and login with your mysonicwall.com account credentials. In this screen you see “Client Anti-Virus” and have the options to Upgrade, Renew and Share. Click “Share”
Step 3: If you have more license keys to add, enter the key in the New License Key field and click Submit button, else click the “Share” button.
Step 4: If you don’t have a share group created, this is where you create the share group. By entering the other unit’s serial number, a license share group will be automatically created.
Step 5: Once a Serial Number has been added to the license share group, licenses can be divided amongst the serial numbers. You can also change the Licenses for existing serial number by changing the value in the “Licenses” text box and then click the Update button.
Alert: Adding extra licenses may remove licenses from other units, so be careful to check all the devices before leaving this screen
Once this is complete Resynchronize the licenses (click Synchronize button on Security Services > Summary page) on all the devices in the share group to activate the changes.
Note:
- From this screen you can also remove Serial Numbers from a Sharing Group, however once a sharing group is created on a unit, this sharing group can not easily be removed again.
- Once a sharing group has been assigned to a certain unit, you can no longer Renew or Upgrade licenses from mysonicwall.com. When renewing or upgrading licenses please always use the Manage License option from the main unit. And always add ALL the keys simultaneously.
