True or False: In a Distributed Environment, a Central License can be installed via CLI on a Security Gateway.
True or False: In a Distributed Environment, a Central License can be installed via CLI on a Security Gateway.
In a Distributed Environment, Central Licenses are managed and distributed by the Security Management Server. When a license is purchased or renewed, it is installed on the Security Management Server, which then allocates the necessary licenses to the Security Gateways. This centralized handling ensures efficient management and distribution of licenses, making it unnecessary and not standard practice to install Central Licenses directly onto Security Gateways via CLI.
A is correct
The answer is D: True, Central Licenses can be installed with CPLIC command on a Security Gateway. In a distributed environment, Central Licenses are typically managed by the Security Management Server (SMS). However, it is possible to install Central Licenses on a Security Gateway (SG) using the CPLIC command. The CPLIC command allows you to attach a Central License to a remote SG. The following is an example of how to use the CPLIC command to install a Central License on a remote SG: cplic -i <central license file> <remote SG IP address>
Central Licenses are managed by the Security Management Server in a distributed environment. When a new license is purchased or an existing license is renewed, it is installed on the Security Management Server, which then distributes the license to the Security Gateways. The Security Management Server manages the licensing for all Security Gateways in the environment, and the Security Gateway retrieves its license information from the Security Management Server. Therefore, the correct option is A: "False, Central Licenses are handled via Security Management Server."
cplic put <object name> Description - Attaches one or more Central or Local licenses to a remote managed Security Gateways and Cluster Members. When you run this command, it automatically updates the license repository. https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Security-Gateways/Central-License-CLI-Security-Gateway/td-p/29818
the correct answer is D. I tested in the prod environment.
A is correct
Sorry I made a mistake. I tested it and worked. Correct answerr is D
A is correct
I think answer is A https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&solutionid=sk62685 Notes You must generate licenses for the main IP address of the corresponding object in SmartConsole. You can install a Central license on a Security Gateway only from SmartConsole (R81 and higher) / SmartUpdate (R80.40 and lower). You can install a Central license on a Management Server from SmartConsole (R81 and higher) / SmartUpdate (R80.40 and lower) / Gaia Portal / CLI Expert mode (the "cplic put" command). You can install a Local license on a Security Gateway from Gaia Portal or CLI Expert mode (the "cplic put" command). If a Security Gateway is connected to the Internet, and your User Center Account contains a Local license generated for the Security Gateway's IP address, then the Security Gateway downloads this license automatically.
