When running a SecureXL debug how do you initialize the debug buffer to 32000?
Which of the following statements are TRUE about SecureXL?
I. SecureXL is able to accelerate all connections through the firewall.
II. Medium path acceleration will still cause some CPU utilization of CoreXL cores.
III. F2F connections represent “forwarded to firewall” connections that are not accelerated and fully processed through the firewall kernel.
IV. Packets going through SecureXL must be inspected by the firewall kernel before being accelerated.
Which command displays FireWall internal statistics about memory and traffic?
Which file holds global Kernel values to survive reboot in a Check Point R77 gateway?
ACME Corp has a cluster consisting of two 13500 appliances. As the Firewall Administrator, you notice that on an output of top, you are seeing high CPU usage of the cores assigned as SNDs, but low CPU usage on cores assigned to individual fw_worker_X processes. What command should you run next to performance tune your cluster?
You enabled IPv6 in your environment and would like to erase all IPv6 connection tables. How can you do it?
Which of the following is true when IPv6 is enabled on a Security Gateway?

While troubleshooting a VPN issue between your gateway and a partner site you see an entry in Smartview Tracker that states “Info: encryption failure: Different community ID: possible NAT problem”. Which of the following is the most likely cause?
Tom is troubleshooting NAT issues using fw monitor and Wireshark. He tries to initiate a connection from the external network to a DMZ server using the public IP which the firewall translates to the actual IP of the server. He analyzes the captured packets using Wireshark and observes that the destination IP is being changed as required by the firewall but does not see the packet leave the external interface. What could be the reason?
You have just configured HA and find that connections are not being synced. When you have a failover, users complain that they are losing their connections. What command could you run to see the state synchronization statistics?
Where would you find CPU information like model, number of cores, vendor and architecture?
What is the difference between “connection establishment acceleration” (templating) and “traffic acceleration”?
What command displays the Connections Table for a specified CoreXL firewall instance?
What does the output of the commands fw ctl multik stat and fw6ctl multik stat show?
You are at a customer site, and when you run cphaprob stat you are not seeing a normal ClusterXL Health. What command could you run verify the number of cores are not matched on both cluster members?
Your customer has a well optimized Rule Base with most traffic accelerated by SecureXL. They are still seeing slow performance. They are using an 8 core machine. They see the following output from fw ctl affinity -l. What could be done to improve performance with this deployment?
When troubleshooting a VPN site-to-site to a peer, it may be necessary to "down" the tunnel. What is the best method to remove ONLY the tunnel to this peer?
You are configuring OSPF on your Secure Platform firewall. You are in expert mode and run the commands:
interface vt-Gateway_C
IP ospf 1 area 0.0.0.0

What is the best process for making this change on the Enterprise gateway only?
You are troubleshooting an issue for your HR team. One of the users is using IP 10.10.10.24. They having been trying to access the vacation servers but all connections are failing.
