Hi ,
Has anybody tried to Manage Checkpoint Edge box from a centralised management. Below is the procedure followed -
Can anybody help me to manage Checkpoint edge box from centrallised box

On VPN-Edge Device: (Firmware is > 5.*.*.*)
- Clicked on connect to service center
- Gave the IP address of NGX management.
In the next screen it is asking for
- gateway ID and registration key
and able to connect.

ON NGX Mgmt: Mgmt communicates to Edge device on the internal Interface.
There is a stand alone Firewall used to monitor the communication between Mgmt and VPN edge. -
- Created VPN-1 Edge/Embedded gateway with IP address and Registration key.
- we have defined Internal IP address on the management.
It is observed that the IP address defined in the general properties is taken as WAN interface in the topology. We are not allowed to change as LAN interface.
- After installing the policy we are not able see any logs on the standalone Firewall (independent) which is installed between VPN-Edge and centralised management. we can see only https logs which is used for managing VPN-Edge.
- Not able to see any logs on the centralised management
- We can see successful installation of policy on the centralised management.
- I can't see any new policy on the VPN edge(logged in through web browser)


I have gone through the document "Checkpoint VPN-1 Edge/Embedded Management Solution", creating and working with VPN-1 Edge /Embedded objects for smartCenter.
In point number 2 document talks about profile (Page 21)
