BAbsolute position using location, absolute position using alias, relative position, all positions
CAbsolute position using location, relative position using alias, general position, all positions
DRelative position using geolocation, relative position using inertial navigation, absolute position, all positions
The customer is using Check Point appliances that were configured long ago by third-party administrators. Current policy includes different enabled IPS protections and Bypass Under Load function. Bypass Under Load is configured to disable IPS inspections of CPU and Memory usage is higher than 80%. The Customer reports that IPS protections are not working at all regardless of CPU and Memory usage. What is the possible reason of such behavior?
AThe kernel parameter ids_assume_stress is set to 0
BThe kernel parameter ids_assume_stress is set to 1
CThe kernel parameter ids_tolerance_no_stress is set to 10
DThe kernel parameter ids_tolerance_stress is set to 10

APostgres database is down
BCpd daemon is unable to connect to the log server
CThe SmartEvent core on the Solr indexer has been deleted
DThe logged in administrator does not have permissions to run SmartEvent
What process is responsible for sending and receiving logs in the management server?
AFWD
BCPM
CFWM
DCPD
What are some measures you can take to prevent IPS false positives?
AExclude problematic services from being protected by IPS (sip, H.323, etc.)
BUse IPS only in Detect mode
CUse Recommended IPS profile
DCapture packets, Update the IPS database, and Back up custom IPS files
Which command can be run in Expert mode to verify the core dump settings?
Agrep cdm /config/db/coredump
Bgrep cdm /config/db/initial
Cgrep $FWDIR/config/db/initial
Dcat /etc/sysconfig/coredump/cdm.conf
What is the difference in debugging a S2S or C2S (using Check Point VPN Client) VPN?
Athere is no difference
Bthe C2S VPN uses a different VPN daemon and there a second VPN debug
Cthe C2S VPN can not be debugged as it uses different protocols for the key exchange
Dthe C2S client uses Browser based SSL vpn and can’t be debugged
Which kernel process is used by Content Awareness to collect the data from contexts?
Adlpda
BPDPC. cpemd

You need to run a kernel debug over a longer period of time as the problem occurs only once or twice a week. Therefore, you need to add a timestamp to the kernel debug and write the output to a file but you can’t afford to fill up all the remaining disk space and you only have 10 GB free for saving the debugs. What is the correct syntax for this?
The two procedures available for debugging in the firewall kernel are: i. fw ctl zdebug ii. fw ctl debug/kdebug
Choose the correct statement explaining the difference in the two.
A(i) Is used for general debugging, has a small buffer and is a quick way to set kernel debug flags to get an output via command line whereas (ii) is useful when there is a need for detailed debugging and requires additional steps to set the buffer and get an output via command line
B(i) is used to debug the access control policy only, however (ii) can be used to debug a unified policy
C(i) is used to debug only issues related to dropping traffic, however (ii) can be used for any firewall issue including NATing, clustering etc.
D(i) is used on a Security Gateway, whereas (ii) is used on a Security Management Server
When a User Mode process suddenly crashes, it may create a core dump file. Which of the following information is available in the core dump and may be used to identify the root cause of the crash? i. Program Counter ii. Stack Pointer iii. Memory management information iv. Other Processor and OS flags / information
Ai, ii, iii and iv
Bi and ii only
Ciii and iv only
DOnly iii
You need to run a kernel debug over a longer period of time as the problem occurs only once or twice a week. Therefore, you need to add a timestamp to the kernel debug and write the output to a file. What is the correct syntax for this?
Afw ctl kdebug -T -f > filename.debug
Bfw ctl kdebug -T > filename.debug
Cfw ctl debug -T -f > filename.debug
Dfw ctl kdebug -T -f -o filename.debug
