If your SonicWALL security appliance is connected to the Internet and registered at mySonicWALL.com, you can activate a 30-day FREE TRIAL of SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus or activate a SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus license directly from the SonicWALL management interface. If you need to create a mySonicWALL.com account to register your SonicWALL security appliance, you can create it directly from the SonicWALL management interface.

SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus is part of the unified SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service that provides comprehensive protection against viruses, worms, Trojans, and other vulnerabilities. When you activate SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus, SonicWALL Intrusion Prevention Service is also activated.
