Just remember Check Point will hammer questions on anything new in NGX because it is new.

Thanks for the info. It is still difficult to know completely which topics are not covered. For example, VPNs might be included a bit but is it site to site only or remote access too. At any rate the following topics I have not even looked at yet as I just am not sure if they are covered:
SecuRemote
SecureClient
Eventia Reporter
VoIP (except the SmartDashboard Options)
SmartLSM
I guess I should just study those regardless but I really want to concentrate only on the topics I am positive are covered.

It is a bit difficult to know considering it seems with NGX, there are a few added topics and then you need to know the addtions of NGX that are not in past versions of checkpoint. Here are the objectives for the 156-215 exam that are listed on checkpoint's web site:
# Manage network security with VPN-1 NGX
# Create rules and modify a Security Policy's properties
# Use monitoring tools to track, monitor, and account for all connections logged by Check Point components
# Use private IP-address allocation and unregistered internal addressing schemes, to overcome IP addressing limitations
# Protect organizations from known network attacks and entire categories of emerging or unknown attacks, using SmartDefense
# Distribute content security to Security Gateways, screen URLs and block suspicious Web data, and provide auditing capabilities and detailed reports
# Verify the identity of users logging in to VPN-1 NGX, using VPN-1 NGX authentication schemes
# Implement LDAP and integrate it with VPN-1 NGX SmartCenter Server
# Configure VPNs, using IKE encryption and Check Point's simplified VPN setup
# Back up critical files and directories, for availability and timely recovery of Security Gateways and SmartCenter Servers
From this list it seems VPN's and maybe LDAP are the only new topics but, even still, I have read conflicting info from other sites. But as this is the official list I have tried to stay as close to these topics as possible.
