I was hoping someone can help me out. I have a Nokia IP330 running checkpoint 4.1 SP1(licensed for 100users). Recently we started running into an issue of licensing with the following messages in /var/log/messages:
 
May 21 15:37:39 corpfw [LOG_CRIT] kernel: FW-1: too many internal hosts (185) detected (followed by a list of IP addresses)
 
Last week I had to bounce the firewall because no incoming requests were allowed in until the fw.hosts file was cleared. The first question I have is: Does the firewall stop forwarding incoming packets once the licensing is breached and how long does it take for that to start happening?
 
The second question is this: I have maybe about 90 hosts (including servers, switches etc...) so technically I should be OK. But as I realized looking at the list of ip's I am getting a bunch of 169.254.x.x addresses and also AOL addresses as well as 10.x.x.x(which we get assigned when we VPN into our production network using Bay extranet Client) Is there any way that we can prevent the firewall to count those IPs as internal?
 
Thanks for any help
