This Check Point CCSA video training series with Keith Barker covers how to
configure and manage a Check Point deployment.

Course Features:
In this Nugget, Keith introduces you to the course and shares with you how to get the most out of this Check Point training.
In this Nugget, Keith shares with you the Architecture that Check Point uses, including an overview of filtering methods and operating
systems (past and present) that we may see in a CP deployment. This video includes OPT-out questions, providing you the opportunit
to "test out" of this video and move directly to the next one.
We need to have the Check Point OS installed before we can configure it. In this Nugget, join Keith as you install GAiA R76 to create a
Manager and Gateway device in a distributed implementation. The topology diagram is available as part of the NuggetLab files for this
course.
In this Nugget, join Keith as IP addresses are configured on the Gateway, banners are set and SmartConsole software is downloaded
from the Manager server to the PC. The use of SmartDashboard to create Gateway, Host and Network objects is demonstrated, along
with linking the Manager to the Gateway. You are encouraged to practice along side of Keith each step of they way, as you build your
Check Point skills.
In this Nugget, you join Keith to create objects and policies on the Manager using SmartDashboard, and then push those policies out t
the Gateway. Command Line Interface (CLI) tools will also be demonstrated in verifying the current policy that is in use on a Firewall.
Network Address Translation (NAT) is a key feature for any Firewall. In this Nugget, Keith explains and demonstrates implementing
Static and Dynamic NAT, including "Hide" NAT on a Check Point firewall. Concepts of Source/Destination NAT are also explained and

Managing multiple firewalls, and being able to restore from a previous configuration are critical skills, and in this Nugget, you join Keith
as he teaches and demonstrates both techniques.
Sorting through log and accounting files has never been so much fun! Seriously. This Nugget demonstrates the features of SmartView
Tracker and managing Log files and configure settings that control them. You are encouraged to practice alongside of Keith using eith
the a practice lab topology you have created, or by using SmartDashboard in "demo" mode.
Need to know what the real-time flows of traffic are through a gateway, or what the top talkers are on your network? SmartView Monito
delivers that information and much much more, including the ability to implement real-time blocking of traffic to stop an immediate
threat.
Using a centralized user database, such as LDAP can save the time and effort of recreating users inside of Check Point. In this Nugge
Keith walks you through configuring access to an LDAP database using an LDAP account unit. Windows Server 2012 is used in this
video as the LDAP server.
The Gateway can allow access based on details such as which subnet a customer is using, who that user is and even what machine
they are using. This feature is called Identity Awareness. An additional benefit is that the log files can also include the usernames
associated with network activity. In this Nugget, Keith walks you through enabling, testing and verifying Identity Awareness.
Application layer awareness and the ability to control traffic at that level is a very bright star in the Check Point galaxy. In this Nugget,
Keith demonstrates how to enable the features, configure policy based on web site category, the application payload, or both.
When the gateway needs to analyze application layer traffic, it is tough to do so if that payload is encrypted using SSL/TLS. In this
Nugget, join Keith as you learn how the firewall can act as a man-in-the-middle, between a client and final SSL server using HTTPS
inspection.
The Command Line Interface may be the only way to recover a gateway that is unable to communicate with its manager. In this
Nugget, Keith introduces a few CLI modes and commands for backup and restore, re-establishing SIC, checking on status, and much
more.
Everyone deserves a little confidentiality, and the encryption used by IPsec provides just that (along with authentication and data
integrity too). In this Nugget, Keith walks you through the concepts and protocols used by IPsec, and then demonstrates implementing
a site to site IPsec VPN between FW1 and FW2. Verification and troubleshooting using CLI and GUI tools also are demonstrated.
The question isn't IF you will need to restore from a backup, but rather WHEN! In this Nugget, Keith shares with you several backup
methods, including what is backed up and which tools(CLI, WebGUI, DashBoard) are supported for each method (revisions, backups,
images).
Having a tool that can assist in the remote updates of licenses, patches, and OS fixes is useful. Fortunately, that tool is provided in a

In this Nugget, Keith introduces you to some of the additions software blades, and VPN options available in a Check Point network.
Legacy user authentication (user, client, session) is presented along with how to configure it as part of a firewall rule.
Here are some tips from Keith about having a successful CCSA certification exam. Thanks for watching the CCSA Check Point course
