To register your first appliance
1
From a computer that can access the new appliance, locate the appliance in
a browser.
The default login address is:
https://
<hostname>
:41443
where
<hostname>
is the hostname you designated for your appliance during
initialization using the Control Center. Or, you can use the IP address in place
of
<hostname>
.
Port 41443 provides SSL access to the Control Center. HTTP access is disabled
by default. To use HTTP, you must enable HTTP via the command line
interface and specify port 41080.
See the Symantec Mail Security Appliance Administration Guide for
information on the
http
command.
You will see a security alert message.

Accept the self-signed certificate to continue.
The Control Center log in page is displayed.

Log in as user
admin
, using the password you set during initialization.
The License Registration page is displayed, showing the license status of each
feature.

Select your .slf file and click Open to return to the License Registration page.
If you are registering a Premium feature such as Premium Content Compliance
(PCC) and you have a separate license for the PCC, register your license for
the feature on each Scanner that will be using the feature.
6
If your Scanner will be using a proxy server for communications with
Symantec, complete the proxy configuration fields.

Click Register.
If registration was successful, the License Registration page returns. If there
was an error, you will see error text at the top of the page.
For registration and ongoing operations, the appliance communicates with
Symantec Security Response over a secure connection. If registration has
failed, ensure that your network is configured to permit outbound connections
to Symantec on port 443.
