Check Point Certified Cloud Specialist (CCCS) R82 — Question 18

During firewall kernel debug with fw ctl zdebug you received less information that expected. You noticed that a lot of messages were lost since the time the debug was started. What should you do to resolve this issue?

Answer options

• A. Increase debug buffer; Use fw ctl debug -buf 32768
• B. Redirect debug output file; Use fw ctl zdebug -o ./debug.elg
• C. Increase debug buffer; Use fw ctl zdebug -buf 32768
• D. Redirect debug output file; Use fw ctl debug -o ./debug.elg

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because increasing the debug buffer allows more messages to be stored, reducing the likelihood of losing information during the debug process. Options B and D focus on redirecting output to a file, which does not address the core issue of insufficient buffer size. Option C is incorrect because it uses the wrong command syntax with fw ctl zdebug instead of fw ctl debug.
