What are the main stages of a policy installations?
The main stages of a policy installation are Verification & Compilation, Transfer, and Commit. Verification ensures the policy is valid; compilation converts the policy into a format that can be installed on the gateways. Transfer moves the policy to the applicable gateways, and commit signifies the final step where the policy is applied and activated on the gateways.
According to the CCSE manual, at page 252, A is correct ! https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/General-Management-Topics/Policy-Installation-Stages/td-p/23105
right... A.. When Policy Installation is initiated from SmartConsole: The cpmi policy installation command is sent to fwm on the Management server. Clarification: The CPMI connection is internal to the Management Server, from CPM to FWM. The install command is sent to the CPM server via web service. fwm performs verification and conversion of the database information for the installation targets for which policy installation is requested. After conversion, fwm invokes fw_loader to perform code generation, compilation, transfer to all applicable gateways and commit. cpd on the Security Gateway listens for install policy connections and receives the files. cpd invokes fw_fetchlocal to load the new policy into the kernel. cpd waits for fw_fetchlocal to complete the process and then informs the Management server of the command's status (installation succeeded or failed).
Verification, compilation, transfer (CPTA) and commit. Pg 252 CCSE book. I too would go for A.
agree, answer is A
i think that is B - Commit policy changes to the database and make them visible to other administrators Note - The changes are saved on the gateways and enforced after the next policy install
I would go with A as well. Found these very informative weblinks; https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Management/Troubleshooting-policy-installation/td-p/27665 https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Management/R80-x-Policy-Installation-Flowchart/td-p/67458
https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Management/Policy-Installation-Stages/td-p/23105 I would go with A.
A is correct!
A should be correct
Had this question today in exam. selected A as the option.
I want to say D, “Verification, Compilation & Transfer, Installation“, at least if the text that “Clusterxlshelby” posted from the CCSE Manual is correct. FWM - verification and conversion fw_loader to perform code generation, compilation and transfer to all applicable gateways and commit CPD invokes fw_fetchlocal to load new policy into kernel Those three steps correlates, in my opinion, to: “Verification, Compilation & Transfer, Installation“
A should be correct
