 SecureXL uses templates to accelerate the connection rate by creating a connection entry in the SecureXL Connections Table without notifying the Firewall kernel for a predefined period of time1. This reduces the load on the Firewall kernel and improves the performance of new connections1. SecureXL uses five attributes to identify a connection and create a template: source address, destination address, source port, destination port, and protocol2. These attributes form a unique 5-tuple that defines a connection2.

 In the Firewall chain mode FFF refers to all packets. Firewall chain mode is a feature that allows administrators to define how packets are processed by different firewall kernel modules in inbound and outbound directions. FFF is one of the predefined chain modes that applies all firewall kernel modules (Firewall, VPN, IPS, etc.) to all packets, regardless of their state or connection. This mode provides maximum security, but also consumes more CPU resources. 

According to the Check Point website, GAiA Software update packages can be imported and installed offline in situation where the Security Gateway with GAiA does not have access to Internet. This allows you to manually download the packages from another device and transfer them to the Security Gateway using a USB drive or other media. The other situations are either not relevant or not possible. References: Offline Software Updates

According to the Check Point website, you can use the pre_upgrade_verifier tool to verify if your management server is ready to upgrade to R81.20. This tool checks the compatibility of your current configuration and database with the target version, and provides a detailed report of any issues or warnings. The other tools are either used for exporting or importing databases, or not valid tools. References: Upgrade Verification Service

The essential means by which state synchronization works to provide failover in the event an active member goes down, ccp is used specifically for clustered environments to allow gateways to report their own state and learn about the states of other members in the cluster. Ccp stands for Cluster Control Protocol, and it is a proprietary protocol that runs on UDP port 8116. Ccp is responsible for exchanging state information, health checks, load balancing decisions, and synchronization network configuration between cluster members. The other options are either commands or daemons that are related to cluster operations, but not the protocol itself. 

The default port used by the AMON server when using CPSTAT is 18192. CPSTAT is a command-line tool that allows administrators to monitor various statistics and status information about Check Point products and components, such as CPU usage, memory usage, policy installation, cluster state, etc. CPSTAT uses AMON (Advanced Monitoring) protocol to communicate with AMON server, which is a daemon that runs on Security Gateways or Management Servers and collects and provides AMON data. By default, AMON server listens on TCP port 18192 for incoming CPSTAT requests.

The cloud-based SandBlast Mobile application that is used to register new devices and users is Check Point Gateway. Check Point Gateway is a web portal that allows administrators to enroll devices and users into the SandBlast Mobile service, which is a cloud-based solution that protects mobile devices from advanced threats. Check Point Gateway also allows administrators to configure policies, monitor device status, and generate reports for SandBlast Mobile. 

The valid range for VRID value in VRRP configuration is 1 - 255. VRID stands for Virtual Router ID, and it is a number that identifies a virtual router in a VRRP cluster. A VRRP cluster consists of one or more routers that share a virtual IP address and provide redundancy and load balancing for network traffic. Each router in the cluster must have a unique VRID value, and the VRID value must match the VRID value configured on the interface that connects to the VRRP cluster. The VRID value can be any number from 1 to 255, inclusive.
