NEW QUESTION # 35
What type of license is required for an MHO?
- A. The MHO requires a VSX license.
- B. The MHO requires a NGTP license.
- C. The MHO does not require a license.
- D. A license is needed for each attached SGM.
Answer: C
Explanation:
The MHO (Maestro Hyperscale Orchestrator) does not require a license by itself, but each SGM (Security Group Module) that is attached to the MHO needs a license. The license type depends on the features and blades that are enabled on the SGM. For example, if the SGM is running VSX, it needs a VSX license.

What does the lldpctl command do?
- A. Discover orchestrators
- B. Show all devices discovered by LLDP protocol on all ports
- C. Show all devices discovered by LLDP protocol on uplink ports
- D. Show all devices discovered by LLDP protocol on downlink ports
Answer: B
Explanation:

NEW QUESTION # 37
What happens if you apply a hotfix using gClish?
- A. If you apply a hotfix using gclish, each SG members installs the hotfix and reboots after waiting it's turn to do so.
- B. If you apply a hotfix using gclish, it causes an outage for the entire SG as all members reboot at roughly the same time.
- C. If you apply a hotfix using gclish, the operation will fail because an outage would occur.
- D. Logical groups "A" and "B" are created. Members of group "A" install and reboot first. Then members of group "B" does the same once reboots have finished with group "A."
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
This is the correct answer because it describes the hotfix installation process using gClish on a Maestro Security Group. gClish is the global Clish that allows users to run commands on all UP SG members of the current Security Group at once. When a hotfix is applied using gClish, the SG members are divided into two logical groups: "A" and "B". The members of group "A" install the hotfix and reboot first, while the members of group "B" wait for their turn. After all the members of group "A" are back online, the members of group
"B" install the hotfix and reboot.This way, the SG maintains high availability and does not cause an outage.

NEW QUESTION # 40
What is the maximum number of Appliances within the same Security Group?
- A. 0
- B. 1
- C. 2
- D. 3
Answer: D
Explanation:
The maximum number of appliances within the same security group is 31. This is because a security group can have up to 31 Security Group Modules (SGMs) of the same or different models, and each SGM is an appliance that runs the Check Point software. A security group can span across multiple chassis, and each chassis can have up to 16 SGMs. However, the total number of SGMs in a security group cannot exceed 31.

NEW QUESTION # 42
In a Maestro Dual Site environment, what is the definition of the term Active Site.
- A. There is no such thing as an active site. In a Dual Site environment, traffic is load balanced.
- B. The Active Site is the site currently handling the enforcement on traffic passing for a specific SG.Connections are synced within the SGMs in the Active Site.
- C. The Active Site is the site where the SMO Master exists.
- D. The Active Site is the site that is not handling any traffic for the specific SG, but its connections are synced to its SGMs from the MHOs to be ready in the event of a failover.
Answer: B
Explanation:
In a Maestro Dual Site environment, there are two sites that can host Security Group Members (SGMs) for each Security Group (SG). The Active Site is the one that is currently processing the traffic for a specific SG, while the Standby Site is the one that is ready to take over in case of a failover. The Active Site and the Standby Site can be different for different SGs, depending on the load balancing and failover policies. The Active Site and the Standby Site are synchronized by the Maestro Orchestrators (MHOs) using the Site-Sync port and VLANs.

HealthCheck Point _____
- A. is a self-updatable suite of tools for SGMs with the capability to assess the health of the system, visualize the Firewall topology, provide a timeline of critical and informative events that might have occurred in a production system.
- B. is a self-updatable suite of tools for MHOs with the capability to assess the health of the system and provide a timeline of critical and informative events that might have occurred in a production system.
- C. can be used to let you visualize the Firewall topology for the SG and view live statistics, which includes throughput, problem notes, and CPU utilization.
- D. performs a system health check and is meant to replace both a CPInfo and the health check script.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
HealthCheck Point (HCP) is a tool that can perform various tests and checks on the system components of the Security Group Modules (SGMs), such as hardware, software, network, clock,ARP, and more. It can also display the performance statistics of the SGMs, such as throughput, packet rate, CPU utilization, memory usage, and more. Additionally, HCP can provide a graphical representation of the Firewall topology for the Security Group, showing the connections and statuses of the SGMs and the Orchestrators. Furthermore, HCP can generate a report of the critical and informative events that occurred on the system, such as configuration changes, errors, warnings, and alerts. HCP can help identify and troubleshoot any issues or errors that may affect the system functionality or performance.

NEW QUESTION # 48
In what mode do MHOs process traffic?
- A. MHOs process traffic in VSLS mode
- B. MHOs process traffic in Active-Active mode
- C. MHOs process traffic in load sharing mode
- D. MHOs process traffic in Active-Standby mode
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
MHOs process traffic in Active-Active mode, which means that both MHOs are active and share the load of the traffic that is sent to and from the SGMs. Active-Active mode provides better performance and scalability than Active-Standby mode, which only uses one MHO at a time and keeps the other as a backup.
Active-Active mode also allows for faster failover and recovery in case of an MHO failure, as the surviving MHO can take over the traffic without interruption.

What is the purpose of Management ports located on the Rear Panel of the Orchestrator MHO-140?
- A. Out-of-band interfaces for access to Orchestrator itself
- B. Additional ports used as uplinks
- C. 1Gbps connectivity for Security Groups
- D. Reserved for internal purposes. Not in use.
Answer: A
Explanation:
The Management ports located on the Rear Panel of the Orchestrator MHO-140 are out-of-band interfaces that provide access to the Orchestrator itself for configuration and management purposes. They are not used for traffic distribution or connectivity to the Security Groups or the external networks. They are 1Gbps RJ-45 ports that can be connected to a switch or a router.

NEW QUESTION # 52
What will happen in case of NAT of the traffic passing through Management network?
- A. This traffic will not pass correction, since it will be dropped
- B. Since Management traffic is always going to SMO, it will take a care for Correction Layer and will re- distribute traffic to other Appliances
- C. This traffic will pass with no inspection
- D. Orchestrator will disable NAT and traffic will pass with no issue
Answer: D
Explanation:
According to the Check Point MAESTRO R80.20SP Administration Manual1, NAT is not supported on the management network. If you configure NAT on the management network, the Orchestrator will disable NAT and allow the traffic to pass without translation. This is to ensure that the management traffic can reach the Security Group members and the SmartConsole without any issues.

NEW QUESTION # 55
What cannot be a reason for "Failed to get remote orchestrator interfaces" error message, when clicking on
"Orchestrator" in WebUI
- A. No Sync between orchestrators
- B. Remote orchestrator has no empty interfaces
- C. One orchestrator only, but Orchestrator amount is 2 or no Sync in between orchestrators
- D. Single orchestrator environment, but configured Orchestrator amount is 2
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
One of the possible reasons for the "Failed to get remote orchestrator interfaces" error message, when clicking on "Orchestrator" in WebUI, is that the remote orchestrator has no empty interfaces that can be assigned to a security group. This can happen if all the interfaces on the remote orchestrator are already part of configured security groups, or if the remote orchestrator has no physical interfaces at all. In this case, the WebUI cannot display the unassigned interfaces of the remote orchestrator, and shows the error message.
