Register the VM-Series Firewall

When you purchase a VM-Series firewall, you receive an email that includes an auth code for a capacity license for the VM-Series model, a support entitlement auth code, and one or more auth codes for the subscription licenses. To use the auth code(s), you must register the code to the support account on the Palo Alto Networks Customer Support website. In the case of the VMware integrated NSX solution, the email contains a single authorization code that bundles the capacity license for one or more instances of the VM-Series model, the support entitlement, and one or more subscription licenses.
