SmartEvent is a unified security management solution that provides real-time visibility into security events across the network. SmartEvent shows correlated logs and aggregated data to provide an overview of potential threats and attack patterns, as well as generate reports and alerts based on predefined or customized indicators. SmartView Tracker, SmartLog, and SmartView Monitor are other SmartConsole applications that can show logs, search queries, and network statistics respectively, but they do not provide the same level of correlation and analysis as SmartEvent.

Automatic Hide NAT rules are created by the administrator when they configure NAT for network objects or groups in the object properties. Automatic Hide NAT rules allow multiple private IP addresses to share a single public IP address when accessing external networks. Source Port Address Translation (PAT) is enabled by default for Automatic Hide NAT rules, which means that the Security Gateway assigns a unique source port number for each connection from the same source IP address. This allows the Security Gateway to keep track of the connections and translate the reply packets correctly. 

The following is considered a “Subscription Blade”, requiring renewal every 1-3 years: IPS blade4. The IPS blade is a software blade that provides protection against network attacks and exploits by inspecting traffic and blocking malicious packets. The IPS blade requires a subscription license that includes updates for the IPS signatures and Geo Protection database. Other subscription blades include Anti-Bot, Anti-Virus, URL Filtering, Application Control, Threat Emulation, and Threat Extraction.

Specific VPN Communities is the option that would only match and allow traffic to VPN gateways for one Community in common. This option allows you to define a specific VPN community that includes the VPN gateways that are allowed to communicate with each other. The other options are either too broad or too narrow for this scenario. References: [Site to Site VPN in R80.x - Tutorial for Beginners]

 Central License is the preferred and recommended method of licensing because it ties to the IP address of the management server and is not dependent on the IP of any gateway in the event it changes. Central License allows administrators to manage licenses for all Security Gateways from one central location. If the IP address of a gateway changes, the license remains valid as long as it is connected to the same management server. Central Licensing is supported with Gaia and is not the only option when deploying Gaia. Central Licensing does not tie to the IP address of a gateway and can not be changed to any gateway if needed.

The reason why querying logs now are very fast is that Indexing Engine indexes logs for faster search results. Indexing Engine is a component of R81 Management that creates and maintains an index of log data, which enables quick and efficient log searches4. The other options are not related to the speed of log querying. The amount of logs being stored may vary depending on the log retention settings. New Smart-1 appliances may have improved hardware specifications, but they do not affect the log querying process directly. SmartConsole queries results from the Security Management Server, not from the Security Gateway.

The correct syntax for adding a host using GAiA management CLI is mgmt add host name ip-address 2. References: Check Point GAiA R81 Command Line Interface Reference Guide

Browser-Based Authentication is the best method for enabling Identity Awareness on the Check Point firewalls for users who use company issued or personal laptops. Browser-Based Authentication redirects users to a web page where they enter their credentials to access the network resources. This method does not require any installation or configuration on the user’s device and supports any operating system and browser. AD Query is a method that queries Active Directory servers for user login events and maps them to IP addresses. This method does not work for personal laptops that are not joined to the domain. Identity Agents are software agents that run on Windows or macOS devices and provide user and machine identity information to the firewall. This method requires installation and management of the agents on each device, which may not be feasible for personal laptops. Terminal Servers Agent is a method that identifies users who connect to Windows Terminal Servers or Citrix servers via RDP or ICA protocols. This method does not apply to laptops that connect directly to the network910 References: Identity Awareness Reference Architecture and Best Practices, Part 10 - Identity

The correct answer is D because the recommended size of the root partition for a dedicated R80 SmartEvent server is at least 20GB2. Any size, less than 20GB, or more than 10GB and less than 20GB are not sufficient for the SmartEvent server. References: Check Point R80.40 Installation and Upgrade Guide
