We recommend that you update your SNS firewalls to a version with maintenance to guarantee the protection of your infrastructure.

# STORMSHIELD MANAGEMENT CENTER

If you have installed the Stormshield Management Center centralized administration server, this panel will allow you to install the connecting package in order to connect your firewall to the SMC server.

IMPORTANT
If you have logged on via the web administration interface to a firewall connected to an SMC server, "Managed by SMC" will be displayed in the upper panel. By default, the account used only has read-only access privileges.
You are strongly advised against directly modifying the configuration of a firewall administered by an SMC server, except in an emergency (SMC server uncontactable, for example).
This is because any changes made directly to the configuration via the web administration interface on a firewall attached to an SMC server may be overwritten when a new configuration is sent from the SMC server.
Fore more information about how to set up SMC, please refer to SMC installation guide and SMC administration guide.

## Connecting the firewall to SMC

Select the connecting package. | Choose the SMC connecting package from the centralized administration server.

### Buttons

Install the package: When a connecting package has been selected, this button will download and install it on the firewall.

Once the package has been installed, information regarding the connection to the server will then be displayed (IPv4/IPv6 address of the server, connection validity, verification frequency for this connection, timeout before the server's response, timeout before reconnection).
