To power source

The Power LEDs on the front panel light up blue when you

plug in the SonicWALL NSA . The Alarm LED may light up

and the Test

LED will light up and may blink while the

appliance performs a series of diagnostic tests.

When the Power LEDs are lit and the Test LED is no longer lit, the SonicWALL NSA is ready for configuration. This typically occurs within a few minutes of applying power to the appliance.

Note: If the Test or Alarm LEDs remain lit after the SonicWALL NSA appliance has been booted, restart the appliance by cycling power.
