Exam 156-315.82 Topic 1 Question 120 Discussion

Actual exam question for CheckPoint's 156-315.82 exam
Question #: 120
Topic #: 1
According to the policy installation flow, the transfer stage, CPTA, is invoked by the FWM process, which initiates the Transfer/Commit phase. On the Security Gateway side, a process receives the policy files and first stores them into a temporary directory. Which directory for the Commit phase is correct for receiving these files?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

The correct answer isC. During policy installation, the policy package is transferred to the Security Gateway and staged temporarily before the gateway commits the policy as the active local policy. Check Point CLI documentation identifies the installed Access Control Policy storage locations on the Security Gateway as including both the temporary policy directory and the local policy directory: $FWDIR/state/__tmp/FW1/ and
$FWDIR/state/local/FW1/. The temporary directory is used during the transfer/loading stage, while the committed local policy is stored under $FWDIR/state/local/FW1/. Option A points to the temporary staging location, not the final committed policy location. Option B is wrong because $CPDIR is not the firewall policy state directory for the committed Access Control Policy. Option D is syntactically wrong because the directory is FW1, not FW-1. For exam purposes, remember the split:temporary receive/load path = _tmp; committed local policy path = local/FW1. Reference topic:Policy Installation / Access Control Policy Storage Directories.
