Check Point Certified Security Administrator (CCSA) R81 — Question 114

The Online Activation method is available for Check Point manufactured appliances. How does the administrator use the Online Activation method?

Answer options

• A. The SmartLicensing GUI tool must be launched from the SmartConsole for the Online Activation tool to start automatically.
• B. No action is required if the firewall has internet access and a DNS server to resolve domain names.
• C. Using the Gaia First Time Configuration Wizard, the appliance connects to the Check Point User Center and downloads all necessary licenses and contracts.
• D. The cpinfo command must be run on the firewall with the switch -online-license-activation.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the Gaia First Time Configuration Wizard is specifically designed to connect to the Check Point User Center for downloading licenses. Option A is incorrect as the SmartLicensing GUI is not required for Online Activation to start. Option B is misleading since some action is still needed to initiate the activation process, and option D is incorrect because the cpinfo command is not used for Online Activation.
