During the initial setup of a Sophos Firewall, which registration option should be selected if the license has not been processed?

When setting up a Sophos Firewall initially and the license has not been processed, selecting the option to not register now is appropriate because it allows for an immediate setup of the device without requiring the completion of the registration process. This choice provides flexibility for the administrator to return to the registration later, ensuring that the essential configuration of the firewall can be completed first without being hindered by licensing prerequisites.

This option is particularly beneficial in situations where the administrator may need to perform other initial configurations or tests before finalizing the registration. It streamlines the setup process, focusing on establishing network connectivity and implementing other settings at first.

The other choices include options that either push for immediate registration or indicate a need to process a license key, which may not be feasible if that key has not yet been obtained. Thus, selecting not to register right away enables a smoother start to the firewall configuration journey.
