Active Directory Query is an identity acquisition method that allows a Security Gateway to identify Active Directory users and computers. Active Directory Query enables the Security Gateway to query the Active Directory Domain Controllers for user and computer information, such as IP addresses, group memberships, and login events.

Check Point Gaia can be configured using:

The Command Line Interface (CLI) – This includes Clish and Expert mode, accessible via SSH, console access, or direct login.

The GAiA Portal (WebUI) – A browser-based graphical user interface used to manage Gaia settings.

Option A (incorrect): The CLI is not limited to serial console access. SSH is widely used.

Option B (incorrect): "Gaia Ultimate Shell" is not an official term.

Option D (incorrect): "Web Ultimate Interface" is not a valid name.

Thus, the correct answer is C. Command line interface; GAiA Portal.

The best sync method in the ClusterXL deployment is to use one dedicated sync interface56. This method provides optimal performance and reliability for synchronization traffic. Using multiple sync interfaces is not recommended as it increases CPU load and does not provide 100% sync redundancy5. Using multiple clusters is not a sync method, but a cluster topology. References: Sync Redundancy in ClusterXL, Best Practice for HA sync interface

To achieve the requirement of giving the Network Operations Center administrator access to Check Point Security devices mostly for troubleshooting purposes, but not to the expert mode, and still allowing her to run tcpdump, you need to:

Add tcpdump to CLISH using add command. This command adds a new command to the Command Line Interface Shell (CLISH) that allows running tcpdump without entering the expert mode .

Create a new access role. This option defines a set of permissions and commands that can be assigned to a user or a group of users.

Add tcpdump to the role. This option grants the permission to run tcpdump to the role.

Create new user with any UID and assign role to the user. This option creates a new user account with any User ID (UID) and assigns the role that has tcpdump permission to the user.

The tracking actions that can be selected when configuring Spoof Tracking are Log, alert, none. Spoof Tracking is a feature that detects packets with spoofed source IP addresses and logs them in SmartView Tracker. The administrator can choose to log only, log and alert, or do nothing when spoofed packets are detected. The other options are not valid tracking actions for Spoof Tracking, as they are either not available or not relevant for this feature.

 The SIC Status “Unknown” means that there is no connection between the gateway and Security Management Server. This can happen if the gateway is down, unreachable, or has not been initialized yet12.

The Threat Prevention Software Blade that provides protection from malicious software that can infect your network computers is Anti-Virus. Anti-Virus is a software blade that scans files and traffic for viruses, worms, trojans, spyware, and other malware. Anti-Virus can block or clean infected files and prevent malware outbreaks. IPS is a software blade that provides protection from network attacks and exploits. Anti-Malware is not a software blade, but rather a term that refers to any software that can detect and remove malware. Content Awareness is a software blade that provides visibility and control over data that enters or leaves the network based on file types, data types, and keywords.

The “Hit Count” feature is enabled or disabled on the Policy layer in SmartConsole1. To enable or disable the “Hit Count” feature, right-click on the Policy layer and select “Edit Layer”. Then, check or uncheck the “Enable Hit Count” option1. References: Solved: Hit Count in R80.x

 To ensure that VMAC mode is enabled, you should run the command fw ctl get int fwha_vmac_global_param_enabled on all cluster members and check that the result of the command returns the value 11. This command shows the current value of the global kernel parameter fwha_vmac_global_param_enabled, which controls whether VMAC mode is enabled or disabled. VMAC mode is a feature that associates a Virtual MAC address with each Virtual IP address of the cluster, which reduces the need for Gratuitous ARP packets and improves failover performance1. The other options are incorrect. Option A is not a valid command. Option C is a command to show the status of cluster interfaces, not VMAC mode2. Option D is a command to show the value of a different global kernel parameter, fwha_vmac_global_param_enabled, which controls whether VMAC mode is enabled for all interfaces or only for non-VLAN interfaces1.

References: Threat Emulation is not a policy type available for each policy package. Threat Emulation is a software blade that is part of the Threat Prevention policy type. The other options are valid policy types that can be configured for each policy package. References: [Threat Prevention Administration Guide R80.40], [Security Policies Administration Guide R80.40]
