The components of Check Point Capsule are Capsule Docs, Capsule Cloud, and Capsule Workspace123. There is no Capsule Enterprise component. Capsule Docs protects business documents everywhere they go. Capsule Cloud protects mobile users outside the enterprise security perimeter. Capsule Workspace creates a secure business environment on mobile devices.

The steps you will need to do in SmartConsole in order to get the connection working behind the Internet Security Gateway are:

Define an accept rule in Security Policy. This rule allows the traffic from your internal networks to pass through the Security Gateway.

Define automatic NAT for each network to NAT the networks behind a public IP. This option translates the private IP addresses of your internal networks to a public IP address assigned by your ISP router. This way, your internal networks can communicate with the Internet using a valid IP address.

Publish and install the policy. This step applies the changes you made to the Security Gateway and activates the security and NAT rules.

The Status Attention means that at least one Software Blade has a minor issue, but the gateway works1. For example, this could indicate a license expiration warning, a policy installation failure, or a blade activation problem2.

The option that is used to enforce changes made to a Rule Base is Install policy. Installing policy is the process of sending the security policy and the network objects from the Security Management Server to the Security Gateway1, p. 22. Publishing database and saving changes are options that are used to save changes made to a Rule Base, but they do not enforce them on the Security Gateway2. Activating policy is not a valid option in SmartConsole. References: Check Point CCSA - R81: Practice Test & Explanation, Check Point SmartConsole R81 Help

This answer is correct because for a certificate-based VPN tunnel, both gateways need to have a certificate issued by a certificate authority (CA) that they trust1. A CA is a trusted entity that verifies the identity of the gateways and signs their certificates2. The gateways can either use the same CA or different CAs, as long as they trust each other’s CA3. This way, the gateways can authenticate each other using their certificates and establish a secure VPN tunnel.

The other answers are not correct because they are either irrelevant or incompatible with certificate-based VPN tunnel. Shared secret passwords and unique passwords are used for pre-shared key (PSK) authentication, which is a different method than certificate authentication4. PSK authentication is less secure and more vulnerable to brute force attacks than certificate authentication. Shared user certificates are not used for gateway authentication, but for user authentication, which is a different level of authentication than gateway authentication. User authentication is optional and can be used in addition to gateway authentication to provide more granular access control.

The Object Explorer is the part of SmartConsole that allows administrators to add, edit, delete, and clone objects. Objects are entities that represent network elements, such as hosts, networks, gateways, services, users, etc. The Object Explorer provides a tree view of all the objects in the database and allows searching, filtering, and grouping them2.

 A clean-up rule is a rule that is placed at the end of the security policy to drop any traffic that is not explicitly allowed by the previous rules. It is a best practice to have a clean-up rule to prevent unauthorized access and log the dropped packets for analysis12. The other options are not the purpose of a clean-up rule. References: Clean-up Rule, Check Point CCSA - R81: Practice Test & Explanation

The default shell of the Gaia CLI is cli.sh, which provides a limited set of commands for basic configuration and troubleshooting. To change from the cli.sh shell to the advanced shell (also known as expert mode) to run Linux commands, the administrator needs to execute the command ‘expert’ in the cli.sh shell

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

The answer is A because the graphic shows the properties of a personal .p12 certificate file issued for user John. A .p12 file is a file format that contains a user’s private key and public key certificate. The graphic shows that the certificate file is valid and has an expiration date of 07-Apr-2018. The graphic also shows that the certificate file is issued by an internal CA, which is a Check Point component that manages certificates for users and gateways.References: Check Point R81 Certificate Management, Check Point R81 Internal CA
