Check Point Certified Security Administrator (CCSA) R81.20 — Question 131

When an Admin logs into SmartConsole and sees a lock icon on a gateway object and cannot edit that object, what does that indicate?

Answer options

• A. Incorrect routing to reach the gateway.
• B. The Admin would need to login to Read-Only mode.
• C. The gateway is not powered on.
• D. Another Admin has made an edit to that object and has yet to publish the change.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The presence of a lock icon on a gateway object indicates that another Admin has edited the object and has not yet published the changes, preventing others from making further modifications. The other options do not accurately represent the reason for the lock; routing issues, Read-Only mode, or the gateway being powered off are unrelated to the lock icon's meaning.
