This feature of SQL DM for MySQL saves you time from registering each slave individually. In order to ask for SQL DM for MySQL to auto-register all slaves, you need to 'check' the option select the toggle switch to enable "Auto-Register slaves" in the 'Advanced settings' tab while registering a slave. If a master is already registered, click 'Edit Server' and check the 'Auto-Register slaves' in the 'Advanced settings' tab. The MySQL and the SSH details of the slaves are assumed to be the same as that of the 'master'. In case the slave details are different from that of the master, you have to manually edit that server and change details.

The auto-registering of slaves is extended to multiple levels of replication. For instance, lets say Server A is a Master that has Server B as the slave. And Server B has Server C as its slave. In such case, while registering Server A, if you check 'Auto-Register Slaves', then it registers A, B and C provided the MySQL and the SSH details of the A is same as that of B.
