After you have successfully installed the ISO image and connected the NIOS-X physical appliance server to the Cloud Services Infoblox Portal, the appliance server will automatically enter the Awaiting Approval state. You will be able to log in to the Cloud Services Infoblox Portal and approve or deny the attempt to connect to the host. During the approval process, which takes up to 30 minutes, the appliance’s server status will appear in the panel under Platform Management and will change from Awaiting Approval to Pending, then to Review Details, and then to Online. The change in status is an indication that the approval process is progressing properly.
