Due to high CPU workload on the Security Gateway, the security administrator decided to purchase a new multicore CPU to replace the existing single core CPU. After installation, is the administrator required to perform any additional tasks?
A. After upgrading the hardware, increase the number of kernel instances using cpconfig
B. Hyperthreading must be enabled in the bios to use CoreXL

Matt wants to upgrade his old Security Management server to R81.x using the Advanced Upgrade with Database Migration. What is one of the requirements for a successful upgrade?
A. Size of the /var/log folder of the source machine must be at least 25% of the size of the /var/log directory on the target machine
B. Size of the /var/log folder of the target machine must be at least 25% of the size of the /var/log directory on the source machine
C. Size of the $FWDIR/log folder of the target machine must be at least 30% of the size of the $FWDIR/log directory on the source machine
D. Size of the /var/log folder of the target machine must be at least 25GB or more
Explanation: One of the requirements for a successful upgrade using the Advanced Upgrade with Database Migration is that the size of the /var/log folder of the target machine must be at least 25% of the size of the /var/log directory on the source machine. This is to ensure that there is enough space to copy the log files from the source machine to the target machine during the upgrade process. References: Advanced Upgrade with Database Migration
After some changes in the firewall policy you run into some issues. You want to test if the policy from two weeks ago have the same issue. You don't want to lose the changes from the last weeks. What is the best way to do it?
A. Use the Gaia WebUI to take a backup of the Gateway. In SmartConsole under Security Policies go to the Installation History view of the Gateway, select the policy version from two weeks ago and press the 'Install specific version' button
B. Use the Gaia WebUI to take a snapshot of management. In the In SmartConsole under Manage & Settlings go to Sessions -> Revisions and select the revision from two weeks ago. Run the action 'Revert to this revision...' Restore the management snapshot.
C. In SmartConsole under Manage & Settings go to Sessions -> Revisions and select the revision from two weeks ago. Run the action 'Revert to this revision...'.
D. In SmartConsole under Security Policies go to the Installation History view of the Gateway, select the policy version from two weeks ago and press the 'Install specific version' button
Explanation:
The best way to test if the policy from two weeks ago have the same issue is to install the specific version of the policy from the installation history view of the gateway. This way, you can keep the changes from the last weeks in the management server and revert back to them later if needed. You do not need to take a backup or a snapshot of the gateway or the management server for this purpose.

What is the command to check the status of the SmartEvent Correlation Unit?
A. fw ctl get int cpsead_stat
B. cpstat cpsead
C. fw ctl stat cpsemd
D. cp_conf get_stat cpsemd
Explanation:
The SmartEvent Correlation Unit is responsible for analyzing the log entries and identifying events from them. It runs on the Log Server machine or on a dedicated machine1. To check the status of the SmartEvent Correlation Unit, you can use the command cpstat cpsead on the machine where it is installed. This command will show you information such as the number of logs processed, the number of events generated, the CPU and memory usage, and the status of the connection to the SmartEvent Server23.

You have used the "set inactivity-timeout 120" command to prevent the session to be disconnected after 10 minutes of inactivity. However, the Web session is being disconnected after 10 minutes. Why?
A. The idle timeout for the web session is specified with the "set web session-timeout" command.
B. The number specified is the amount of the idle timeout in seconds rather than in minutes. So you have to use the command "set inactivity-timeout 600" instead.
C. Probably, you have forgotten to make sure that nobody is accessing the management server via the SmartConsole which locks the management database.
D. The number of minutes is correct. Probably, you have forgotten to save this setting with the "save config" command.
Explanation:
The reason why the web session is being disconnected after 10 minutes is that the idle timeout for the web session is specified with the “set web session-timeout” command, not the “set inactivity-timeout” command. The “set inactivity-timeout” command only affects the CLI session, not the web session. To prevent the web session from being disconnected after 10 minutes of inactivity, you need to use the “set web session-timeout” command with a higher value than 10 minutes.
