Tip: The System > Diagnostics > Run Test page provides the status of your network connection and security services. The example on this page shows test results for a SonicWALL CSM appliance with multiple active network DNS server connections. The Content Filtering Server status is displayed as “not configured” in red, which accurately reflects this SonicWALL CSM appliance not having an active Content Filtering Server subscription service. Adding subscription services is discussed later in this document.
