NEW QUESTION # 175
What processes does CPM control?
- A. web-services, CPMI process, DLEserver, CPM process
- B. web_services, dle_server and object_Store
- C. Object-Store, Database changes, CPM Process and web-services
- D. DLEServer, Object-Store, CP Process and database changes
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
CPM stands for Check Point Management, which is a process that runs on the Security Management server and controls the management operations, such as policy installation, object creation, configuration backup, etc.
CPM also controls other processes that are related to the management functions, such as:
web_services: This process is responsible for providing web services for the communication between SmartConsole and the Security Management server. It handles requests from SmartConsole clients and forwards them to CPM or other processes.
dle_server: This process is responsible for managing the log files and indexes. It handles queries from SmartLog and SmartEvent and provides log data to CPM or other processes.
object_Store: This process is responsible for storing and retrieving objects from the database. It handles requests from CPM or other processes and provides object data.
Therefore, the correct answer is D.
The other options are incorrect because:
A: Object-Store, Database changes, CPM Process and web-services: This option includes some processes that are controlled by CPM, such as Object-Store, CPM Process, and web-services, but it also includes Database changes, which is not a process but an action performed by CPM or other processes.
B: web-services, CPMI process, DLEserver, CPM process: This option includes some processes that are controlled by CPM, such as web-services, DLEserver, and CPM process, but it also includes CPMI process, which is not a process but a protocol used by CPM or other processes to communicate with each other.
C: DLEServer, Object-Store, CP Process and database changes: This option includes some processes that are controlled by CPM, such as DLEServer and Object-Store, but it also includes CP Process and database changes, which are not processes but a generic term for any Check Point process and an action performed by CPM or other processes respectively.

NEW QUESTION # 180
Which of the following Windows Security Events will not map a username to an IP address in Identity Awareness?
- A. Account Logon
- B. Kerberos Ticket Requested
- C. Kerberos Ticket Renewed
- D. Kerberos Ticket Timed Out
Answer: D
Explanation:
Identity Awareness maps usernames to IP addresses by collecting Windows Security Events from Active Directory Domain Controllers. These events include Account Logon, Kerberos Ticket Requested, and Kerberos Ticket Renewed. These events indicate that a user has successfully authenticated to the domain and obtained a Kerberos ticket for accessing network resources. Identity Awareness can use these events to associate the username with the source IP address of the authentication request.
However, Kerberos Ticket Timed Out is not a Windows Security Event that Identity Awareness can use to map usernames to IP addresses. This event indicates that a user's Kerberos ticket has expired and needs to be renewed. This event does not contain the source IP address of the user, only the username and the ticket information. Therefore, Identity Awareness cannot use this event to map a username to an IP address.

This command can be useful for troubleshooting purposes or for emergency access to a gateway. References: [Check Point R81 CLI Reference Guide]
NEW QUESTION # 182
You have a Geo-Protection policy blocking Australia and a number of other countries. Your network now requires a Check Point Firewall to be installed in Sydney, Australia.
What must you do to get SIC to work?
- A. Nothing - Check Point control connections function regardless of Geo-Protection policy
- B. Create a rule at the top in your Check Point firewall to bypass the Geo-Protection
- C. Remove Geo-Protection, as the IP-to-country database is updated externally, and you have no control of this.
- D. Create a rule at the top in the Sydney firewall to allow control traffic from your network
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
Nothing needs to be done to get SIC to work if there is a Geo-Protection policy blocking Australia and a network requires a Check Point Firewall to be installed in Sydney, Australia. SIC stands for Secure Internal Communication, and it is a mechanism that ensures secure and authenticated communication between Check Point components by using certificates issued by an internal Certificate Authority (ICA). SIC is not affected by Geo-Protection policy, which is a feature that allows administrators to block or allow traffic based on the geographic location of the source or destination IP address. Geo-Protection policy only applies to data traffic, not control traffic, and SIC uses control traffic to establish trust between Check Point components.
NEW QUESTION # 183
What are the three SecureXL Templates available in R81.20?
- A. PEP Templates. QoS Templates. VPN Templates
- B. Accept Templates. PDP Templates. PEP Templates
- C. Accept Templates. Drop Templates. NAT Templates
- D. Accept Templates. Drop Templates. Reject Templates
Answer: C
Explanation:
SecureXL is a technology that improves the performance of the Security Gateway by offloading CPU-intensive operations to a dedicated hardware or software module. SecureXL uses templates to accelerate traffic processing based on predefined patterns and conditions. SecureXL supports three types of templates: Accept Templates, Drop Templates, and NAT Templates3.
Accept Templates are used to accelerate traffic that matches an Accept rule in the Security Policy. Accept Templates bypass most of the inspection stages and send packets directly to the network interface.
Drop Templates are used to accelerate traffic that matches a Drop rule in the Security Policy. Drop Templates drop packets without sending them to the firewall kernel for inspection.
NAT Templates are used to accelerate traffic that requires Network Address Translation (NAT). NAT Templates perform NAT operations without sending packets to the firewall kernel.
Therefore, the correct answer is B)

NEW QUESTION # 186
Fill in the blank. Once a certificate is revoked from the Security Gateway by the Security Management Server, the certificate information is ________ .
- A. Sent to the Internal Certificate Authority.
- B. Sent to the Security Administrator.
- C. Stored on the Certificate Revocation List.
- D. Stored on the Security Management Server.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Once a certificate is revoked from the Security Gateway by the Security Management Server, the certificate information is stored on the Certificate Revocation List (CRL). The CRL is a list of certificates that have been revoked by the Internal Certificate Authority (ICA) and are no longer valid for Secure Internal Communication (SIC). The CRL is signed by the ICA and issued to all the managed Security Gateways the next time a SIC connection is made12. The CRL helps to prevent unauthorized access to the Security Management Server by revoked Security Gateways.

NEW QUESTION # 188
What needs to be configured if the NAT property 'Translate destination or client side' is not enabled in Global Properties?
- A. Enabling 'Allow bi-directional NAT' for NAT to work correctly.
- B. A host route to route to the destination IP.
- C. Nothing, the Gateway takes care of all details necessary.
- D. Use the file local.arp to add the ARP entries for NAT to work.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
The NAT property 'Translate destination or client side' is used to determine whether the destination IP address of a packet should be translated on the client side or the server side of a connection. If this property is not enabled, then the destination IP address is translated on the server side, which means that the gateway takes care of all details necessary for NAT to work. The gateway will send an ARP request for the translated IP address and will reply to any ARP requests for that address. Therefore, there is no need to configure a host route, use the local.arp file, or enable bi-directional NAT for NAT to work correctly. References: R81 Security Management Administration Guide, page 1010.

Which web services protocol is used to communicate to the Check Point R81 Identity Awareness Web API?
- A. SOAP
- B. XLANG
- C. XML-RPC
- D. REST
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
The Check Point R81 Identity Awareness Web API uses the REST web services protocol to communicate with external identity sources. REST stands for Representational State Transfer, and it is an architectural style for designing web services that use HTTP methods to access and manipulate resources. The Identity Awareness Web API allows external identity sources to send identity and session information to the Security Gateway, which can then use this information for policy enforcement.
NEW QUESTION # 194
The "MAC magic" value must be modified under the following condition:
- A. There is more than one cluster connected to the same VLAN
- B. A firewall cluster is configured to use Broadcast for CCP traffic
- C. A firewall cluster is configured to use Multicast for CCP traffic
- D. There are more than two members in a firewall cluster
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation: The "MAC magic" value, also known as the "Cluster Global ID", is a mechanism that identifies different clusters on the same network segment. It is used to prevent MAC address conflicts and ensure proper load balancing among cluster members. The "MAC magic" value is a hexadecimal number that is appended to the virtual MAC address of the cluster interface. By default, the "MAC magic" value is set to 1 for all clusters, but it must be changed manually if there is more than one cluster connected to the same VLAN. Otherwise, the clusters will not be able to communicate with each other or with external hosts.
The "MAC magic" value does not need to be modified under the other conditions listed in the question. The firewall cluster can use either Broadcast or Multicast for CCP traffic without affecting the "MAC magic" value. The number of members in a firewall cluster also does not affect the "MAC magic" value, as long as they belong to the same cluster and have the same Cluster Global ID.
