VPN key (to not be confused with pre-shared key that is used for authentication).
VPN trust entities, such as a Check Point Internal Certificate Authority (ICA). The ICA is part of the Check
Point suite used for creating SIC trusted connection between Security Gateways, authenticating
administrators and third party servers. The ICA provides certificates for internal Security Gateways and
remote access clients which negotiate the VPN link.
VPN Domain - A group of computers and networks connected to a VPN tunnel by one VPN gateway that
handles encryption and protects the VPN Domain members.
VPN Community - A named collection of VPN domains, each protected by a VPN gateway.

When an administrator logs in to the Security Management Server through SmartConsole, a new editing
session starts. The changes that the administrator makes during the session are only available to that
administrator. Other administrators see a lock icon on object and rules that are being edited. To make changes
available to all administrators, and to unlock the objects and rules that are being edited, the administrator must
publish the session.

Which of the following is NOT a SecureXL traffic flow?

A. Medium Path
B. Accelerated Path
C. High Priority Path
D. Slow Path

Answer: C
“Best Material, Great Results”. www.certkingdom.com 4 of 227
 156-215.80 Exam

Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:

Explanation:
SecureXL is an acceleration solution that maximizes performance of the Firewall and does not compromise
security. When SecureXL is enabled on a Security Gateway, some CPU intensive operations are processed by
virtualized software instead of the Firewall kernel. The Firewall can inspect and process connections more
efficiently and accelerate throughput and connection rates. These are the SecureXL traffic flows:
Slow path - Packets and connections that are inspected by the Firewall and are not processed by SecureXL.
Accelerated path - Packets and connections that are offloaded to SecureXL and are not processed by the
Firewall.
Medium path - Packets that require deeper inspection cannot use the accelerated path. It is not necessary for
the Firewall to inspect these packets, they can be offloaded and do not use the slow path. For example,
packets that are inspected by IPS cannot use the accelerated path and can be offloaded to the IPS PSL
(Passive Streaming Library). SecureXL processes these packets more quickly than packets on the slow path.

A. Read/Write, Read Only

B. Read/Write, Read Only, None
C. Read/Write, None
D. Read Only, None

Answer: B
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:

Explanation:
Roles
Role-based administration (RBA) lets you create administrative roles for users. With RBA, an administrator can
allow Gaia users to access specified features by including those features in a role and assigning that role to
users. Each role can include a combination of administrative (read/write) access to some features, monitoring
(read-only) access to other features, and no access to other features.
You can also specify which access mechanisms (WebUI or the CLI) are available to the user.
Note - When users log in to the WebUI, they see only those features that they have read-only or read/write
access to. If they have read-only access to a feature, they can see the settings pages, but cannot change the
settings.
Gaia includes these predefined roles:
adminRole - Gives the user read/write access to all features.
monitorRole- Gives the user read-only access to all features.
You cannot delete or change the predefined roles.
Note - Do not define a new user for external users. An external user is one that is defined on an authentication
server (such as RADIUS or TACACS) and not on the local Gaia system.

Central License
A Central License is a license attached to the Security Management server IP address, rather than the
gateway IP address. The benefits of a Central License are:
Only one IP address is needed for all licenses.
A license can be taken from one gateway and given to another.
The new license remains valid when changing the gateway IP address. There is no need to create and

Explanation:
CPInfo is an auto-updatable utility that collects diagnostics data on a customer's machine at the time of
execution and uploads it to Check Point servers (it replaces the standalone cp_uploader utility for uploading
files to Check Point servers).
The CPinfo output file allows analyzing customer setups from a remote location. Check Point support
engineers can open the CPinfo file in a demo mode, while viewing actual customer Security Policies and
Objects. This allows the in-depth analysis of customer's configuration and environment settings.
When contacting Check Point Support, collect the cpinfo files from the Security Management server and

Explanation
Explanation/Reference:

Explanation:
To simplify Policy management, R80 organizes the policy into Policy Layers. A layer is a set of rules, or a Rule
Base.
For example, when you upgrade to R80 from earlier versions:
Gateways that have the Firewall and the Application Control Software Blades enabled will have their
Access Control Policy split into two ordered layers: Network and Applications.
When the gateway matches a rule in a layer, it starts to evaluate the rules in the next layer.
Gateways that have the IPS and Threat Emulation Software Blades enabled will have their Threat
Prevention policies split into two parallel layers: IPS and Threat Prevention.
All layers are evaluated in parallel

The Advanced Routing Suite
The Advanced Routing Suite CLI is available as part of the Advanced Networking Software Blade.
For organizations looking to implement scalable, fault-tolerant, secure networks, the Advanced Networking
blade enables them to run industry-standard dynamic routing protocols including BGP, OSPF, RIPv1, and
RIPv2 on security gateways. OSPF, RIPv1, and RIPv2 enable dynamic routing over a single autonomous
system—like a single department, company, or service provider—to avoid network failures. BGP provides
dynamic routing support across more complex networks involving multiple autonomous systems—such as
when a company uses two service providers or divides a network into multiple areas with different
administrators responsible for the performance of each.

Explanation
Explanation/Reference:

Explanation:
Deployments
Basic deployments:
Standalone deployment - Security Gateway and the Security Management server are installed on the same
machine.
Distributed deployment - Security Gateway and the Security Management server are installed on different
machines.

Assume an environment with gateways on different sites. Each Security Gateway connects to the Internet on
one side, and to a LAN on the other.
You can create a Virtual Private Network (VPN) between the two Security Gateways, to secure all
communication between them.
“Best Material, Great Results”. www.certkingdom.com 46 of 227
 156-215.80 Exam

The Security Management server is installed in the LAN, and is protected by a Security Gateway. The Security
Management server manages the Security Gateways and lets remote users connect securely to the corporate
network. SmartDashboard can be installed on the Security Management server or another computer.
There can be other OPSEC-partner modules (for example, an Anti-Virus Server) to complete the network
security with the Security Management server and its Security Gateways.

Suspicious Activity Rules Solution
Suspicious Activity Rules is a utility integrated into SmartView Monitor that is used to modify access privileges
upon detection of any suspicious network activity (for example, several attempts to gain unauthorized access).
The detection of suspicious activity is based on the creation of Suspicious Activity rules. Suspicious Activity
rules are Firewall rules that enable the system administrator to instantly block suspicious connections that are
not restricted by the currently enforced security policy. These rules, once set (usually with an expiration date),
can be applied immediately without the need to perform an Install Policy operation

Explanation:
Administrator Collaboration
More than one administrator can connect to the Security Management Server at the same time. Every
administrator has their own username, and works in a session that is independent of the other administrators.
When an administrator logs in to the Security Management Server through SmartConsole, a new editing
session starts. The changes that the administrator makes during the session are only available to that
administrator. Other administrators see a lock icon on object and rules that are being edited.
To make changes available to all administrators, and to unlock the objects and rules that are being edited, the
administrator must publish the session.

Answer: D

Explanation
Explanation/Reference:

Explanation:
Policy Layers and Sub-Policies
R80 introduces the concept of layers and sub-policies, allowing you to segment your policy according to your
network segments or business units/functions. In addition, you can also assign granular privileges by layer or
sub-policy to distribute workload and tasks to the most qualified administrators
With layers, the rule base is organized into a set of security rules. These set of rules or layers, are
inspected in the order in which they are defined, allowing control over the rule base flow and the security
functionalities that take precedence. If an “accept†action is performed across a layer, the inspection will
continue to the next layer. For example, a compliance layer can be created to overlay across a crosssection
of rules.
Sub-policies are sets of rules that are created for a specific network segment, branch office or business
unit, so if a rule is matched, inspection will continue through this subset of rules before it moves on to the
next rule.
Sub-policies and layers can be managed by specific administrators, according to their permissions profiles.
This facilitates task delegation and workload distribution.

“Best Material, Great Results”. www.certkingdom.com 59 of 227

 156-215.80 Exam

Explanation:
Office Mode enables a Security Gateway to assign internal IP addresses to SecureClient users. This IP
address will not be exposed to the public network, but is encapsulated inside the VPN tunnel between the
client and the Gateway. The IP to be used externally should be assigned to the client in the usual way by the
Internet Service provider used for the Internet connection. This mode allows a Security Administrator to control
which addresses are used by remote clients inside the local network and makes them part of the local network.
The mechanism is based on an IKE protocol extension through which the Security Gateway can send an
internal IP address to the client.

data.csv:

mgmt_cli add host --batch data.csv -u <username> -p <password> -m <management server>

This can work with any type of command not just "add host" : simply replace the column names with the ones

administrator has their own username, and works in a session that is independent of the other administrators.
When an administrator logs in to the Security Management Server through SmartConsole, a new editing
session starts. The changes that the administrator makes during the session are only available to that
administrator. Other administrators see a lock icon on object and rules that are being edited.
To make changes available to all administrators, and to unlock the objects and rules that are being edited, the
administrator must publish the session.

Gateways, for example if the spoke Security Gateways are DAIP Security Gateways, and the Hub is a Security
Gateway with a static IP address.
b. To center, or through the center to other satellites, to internet and other VPN targets - This allows
connectivity between the Security Gateways as well as the ability to inspect all communication passing through
the Hub to the Internet.
3. Create an appropriate Access Control Policy rule.
4. NAT the satellite Security Gateways on the Hub if the Hub is used to route connections from Satellites to the
Internet.
The two Dynamic Objects (DAIP Security Gateways) can securely route communication through the Security
Gateway with the static IP address.

In a Load Sharing configuration, when the failed Security Gateway in a cluster recovers, all connections are
redistributed among all active members. High Availability and Load Sharing in ClusterXL ClusterXL
Administration Guide R77 Versions | 31 In a High Availability configuration, when the failed Security Gateway
in a cluster recovers, the recovery method depends on the configured cluster setting. The options are:
• Maintain Current Active Security Gateway means that if one member passes on control to a lower priority
member, control will be returned to the higher priority member only if the lower priority member fails. This
mode is recommended if all members are equally capable of processing traffic, in order to minimize the
number of failover events.
• Switch to Higher Priority Security Gateway means that if the lower priority member has control and the
higher priority member is restored, then control will be returned to the higher priority member. This mode is
recommended if one member is better equipped for handling connections, so it will be the default Security
Gateway.

QUESTION 221
An internal router is sending UDP keep-alive packets that are being encapsulated with GRE and sent through
your R77 Security Gateway to a partner site. A rule for GRE traffic is configured for ACCEPT/LOG. Although
the keep-alive packets are being sent every minute, a search through the SmartView Tracker logs for GRE
traffic only shows one entry for the whole day (early in the morning after a Policy install).
Your partner site indicates they are successfully receiving the GRE encapsulated keep-alive packets on the 1-
minute interval.
“Best Material, Great Results”. www.certkingdom.com 111 of 227
 156-215.80 Exam

If GRE encapsulation is turned off on the router, SmartView Tracker shows a log entry for the UDP keep-alive
packet every minute.
Which of the following is the BEST explanation for this behavior?

A. The setting Log does not capture this level of detail for GRE. Set the rule tracking action to Audit since
certain types of traffic can only be tracked this way.
B. The log unification process is using a LUUID (Log Unification Unique Identification) that has become
corrupt. Because it is encrypted, the R77 Security Gateway cannot distinguish between GRE sessions.
This is a known issue with GRE. Use IPSEC instead of the non-standard GRE protocol for encapsulation.
C. The Log Server log unification process unifies all log entries from the Security Gateway on a specific
connection into only one log entry in the SmartView Tracker. GRE traffic has a 10 minute session timeout,
thus each keep-alive packet is considered part of the original logged connection at the beginning of the
day.
D. The Log Server is failing to log GRE traffic properly because it is VPN traffic. Disable all VPN configuration
to the partner site to enable proper logging.

QUESTION 262
John Adams is an HR partner in the ACME organization. ACME IT wants to limit access to HR servers to
designated IP addresses to minimize malware infection and unauthorized access risks. Thus, the gateway
policy permits access only from John's desktop which is assigned a static IP address 10.0.0.19.
John received a laptop and wants to access the HR Web Server from anywhere in the organization. The IT
department gave the laptop a static IP address, but that limits him to operating it only from his desk. The
current Rule Base contains a rule that lets John Adams access the HR Web Server from his desktop with a
static IP (10.0.0.19). He wants to move around the organization and continue to have access to the HR Web
Server.
To make this scenario work, the IT administrator:
1) Enables Identity Awareness on a gateway, selects AD Query as one of the Identity Sources installs the
policy.

A Security Gateway can use these procedures to translate IP addresses in your network:
Static NAT - Each internal IP address is translated to a different public IP address. The Firewall can allow
external traffic to access internal resources.
Hide NAT - The Firewall uses port numbers to translate all specified internal IP addresses to a single
public IP address and hides the internal IP structure. Connections can only start from internal computers,
external computers CANNOT access internal servers. The Firewall can translate up to 50,000 connections
at the same time from external computers and servers.
Hide NAT with Port Translation - Use one IP address and let external users access multiple application
servers in a hidden network. The Firewall uses the requested service (or destination port) to send the traffic
to the correct server. A typical configuration can use these ports: FTP server (port 21), SMTP server (port
25) and an HTTP server (port 80). It is necessary to create manual NAT rules to use Port Translation.

Installing and Publishing
It is important to understand the differences between publishing and installing.
You must do this: After you did this:
Publish Opened a session in SmartConsole and made changes.
The Publish operation sends all SmartConsole modifications to other
administrators, and makes the changes you made in a private session
public.
Install the database Modified network objects, such as servers, users, services, or IPS
profiles, but not the Rule Base.
Updates are installed on management servers and log servers.

B. Users can share identities with other users
C. Security Gateways can acquire and share identities with other Security Gateways
D. Administrators can share identities with other administrators

Answer: C
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:

Explanation:
Identity Sharing
Best Practice - In environments that use many Security Gateways and AD Query, we recommend that you set
only one Security Gateway to acquire identities from a given Active Directory domain controller for each
physical site. If more than one Security Gateway gets identities from the same AD server, the AD server can
become overloaded with WMI queries.
Set these options on the Identity Awareness > Identity Sharing page of the Security Gateway object:
One Security Gateway to share identities with other Security Gateways. This is the Security Gateway that
gets identities from a given domain controller.
All other Security Gateways to get identities from the Security Gateway that acquires identities from the
given domain controller.

A. Use Office Mode

B. Use identity agents
C. Share user identities between gateways
D. Use captive portal

Answer: B

Explanation
Explanation/Reference:

Explanation:
Using Endpoint Identity Agents give you:
User and machine identity
Minimal user intervention – all necessary configuration is done by administrators and does not require user
input.
Seamless connectivity – transparent authentication using Kerberos Single Sign-On (SSO) when users are
logged in to the domain. If you do not want to use SSO, users enter their credentials manually. You can let
them save these credentials.
Connectivity through roaming – users stay automatically identified when they move between networks, as
the client detects the movement and reconnects.

Explanation:
Each VPN tunnel in the community may be set to be a Permanent Tunnel. Since Permanent Tunnels are
constantly monitored, if the VPN tunnel is down, then a log, alert, or user defined action, can be issued. A VPN
tunnel is monitored by periodically sending "tunnel test" packets. As long as responses to the packets are
received the VPN tunnel is considered "up." If no response is received within a given time period, the VPN
tunnel is considered "down." Permanent Tunnels can only be established between Check Point Security
Gateways. The configuration of Permanent Tunnels takes place on the community level and:
Can be specified for an entire community. This option sets every VPN tunnel in the community as
permanent.
Can be specified for a specific Security Gateway. Use this option to configure specific Security Gateways to
have permanent tunnels.
Can be specified for a single VPN tunnel. This feature allows configuring specific tunnels between specific
Security Gateways as permanent.

 156-215.80 Exam

The Need for Anti-Bot

There are two emerging trends in today's threat landscape:
A profit-driven cybercrime industry that uses different tools to meet its goals. This industry includes cybercriminals,
malware operators, tool providers, coders, and affiliate programs. Their "products" can be easily
ordered online from numerous sites (for example, do-it-yourself malware kits, spam sending, data theft, and
denial of service attacks) and organizations are finding it difficult to fight off these attacks.
Ideological and state driven attacks that target people or organizations to promote a political cause or carry
out a cyber-warfare campaign.
Both of these trends are driven by bot attacks.
A bot is malicious software that can invade your computer. There are many infection methods. These include
opening attachments that exploit a vulnerability and accessing a web site that results in a malicious download.

Answer: A
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:

Explanation:
A policy package is a collection of different types of policies. After installation, the Security Gateway enforces
all the policies in the package. A policy package can have one or more of these policy types:
Access Control - consists of these types of rules:
- Firewall
- NAT
- Application Control and URL Filtering
- Data Awareness
QoS
Desktop Security - the Firewall policy for endpoint computers that have the Endpoint Security VPN remote
access client installed as a standalone client.
“Best Material, Great Results”. www.certkingdom.com 199 of 227
 156-215.80 Exam

Threat Prevention - consists of:

- IPS - IPS protections continually updated by IPS Services
- Anti-Bot - Detects bot-infected machines, prevents bot damage by blocking bot commands and Control
(C&C) communications
- Anti-Virus - Includes heuristic analysis, stops viruses, worms, and other malware at the gateway
- Threat Emulation - detects zero-day and advanced polymorphic attacks by opening suspicious files in a
sandbox
The installation process:
Runs a heuristic verification on rules to make sure they are consistent and that there are no redundant
rules.
If there are verification errors, the policy is not installed. If there are verification warnings (for example, if antispoofing
is not enabled for a Security Gateway with multiple interfaces), the policy package is installed with a
warning.
Makes sure that each of the Security Gateways enforces at least one of the rules. If none of the rules are
enforced, the default drop rule is enforced.
Distributes the user database and object database to the selected installation targets.
