Check Point Certified Security Expert (CCSE) R81.20 — Question 50

What is the purpose of the command “ps aux | grep fwd”?

Answer options

• A. You can check whether the IPS default setting is set to Detect or Prevent mode
• B. You can check the Process ID and the processing time of the fwd process.
• C. You can convert the log file into Post Script format.
• D. You can list all Process IDs for all running services.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The command 'ps aux | grep fwd' specifically filters out the details of the 'fwd' process, allowing you to see its Process ID and associated processing time, which makes option B correct. Options A and C do not relate to process monitoring, while option D, although it lists processes, does not focus on the 'fwd' process specifically.
