Check Point Certified Security Expert (CCSE) R81.20 — Question 161

Alice & Bob are going to deploy Management Data Plane Separation (MDPS) for all their Check Point Security Gateway(s)/Cluster(s). Which of the following statement is true:

Answer options

• A. Data Plane - To access, provision and monitor the Security Gateway
• B. Management Plane - for all other network traffic and processing
• C. Each network environment is dependent and includes interfaces, routes, sockets, and processes
• D. Management Plane - To access, provision and monitor the Security Gateway

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the Management Plane is specifically designed to access, provision, and monitor the Security Gateway. Option A incorrectly attributes these functions to the Data Plane, while option B mischaracterizes the Management Plane's role. Option C describes the components of a network environment but does not address the specific function of the Management Plane.
