2.Plug the other end of the cable into an open port on your network hub or switch.

Note:

zYour SonicWALL Email Security Appliance will perform better if you follow the shutdown procedures when you need to power-down. To shut down your appliance, use the web interface, or press the power button on the front of the appliance once. Holding down the power button or unplugging your appliance does not give it time to write all the data in volatile memory to stable memory, and you may lose settings or data.
