Check Point Certified Security Administrator (CCSA) R81.20 — Question 12

One of major features in SmartConsole is concurrent administration. Which of the following is NOT possible considering that AdminA, AdminB and AdminC are editing the same Security Policy?

Answer options

• A. AdminB sees a pencil icon next the rule that AdminB is currently editing.
• B. AdminA, AdminB and AdminC are editing three different rules at the same time.
• C. AdminA and AdminB are editing the same rule at the same time.
• D. AdminC sees a lock icon which indicates that the rule is locked for editing by another administrator.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because SmartConsole does not allow two administrators to edit the same rule at the same time. Option A is valid as AdminB can see the pencil icon for their current edit, B is also possible since they can work on different rules, and D correctly describes the behavior when a rule is being edited by another admin.
