2. Login via [ snwlcli ] 1st, then login as admin and the admin password you setup.

(TO CLEANUP DATABASES THAT BECOME CORRUPT AND CAUSE 100% CPU UTILIZATION)
Also may get messages in System, Monitoring, View Alerts: "SonicWALL Email Security Gateway not responding to SMTP test", or "Thumbprint database files are stale". This also corrects "Email Security is on: = Red X" or "Email Security is Off".

(HTML DIAG SCREEN - MUCH MUCH EASIER!)
For appliances running "Email Security Firmware Version 7.3.4.5721" and above, you can use the /diag html page, to see all and run commands from an HTML page.
1. Login to the ES ad admin, and change the ending URL to /diag or /diag.html.
For Example: https://mail.company.com/diag.html
