SonicWALL Intrusion Prevention Service.
If you do not have SonicWALL IPS activated on your SonicWALL security appliance, you must
purchase SonicWALL IPS from a SonicWALL reseller or through your mySonicWALL.com account
(limited to customers in the USA and Canada).
If you do not have SonicWALL IPS installed on your SonicWALL security appliance, the Security
Services > Intrusion Prevention page indicates an upgrade is required and includes a link to
activate your IPS subscription from the SonicWALL management interface or to activate a FREE
TRIAL of SonicWALL IPS.
