Hi,

How many hosts do you see when you do a "fw lichosts"?, are your hosts
getting their IP addresses from a DHCP server? If so, maybe there is the
problem because every time your hosts change their IP addesss, the
firewall is going to count each one of them.

Hope this helps,

Asunto: [FW-1] RE : [FW-1] RE : [FW-1] Checkpoint licence : Count unique
internal hosts

Hello,

It is actually an Express Licence.
When I do a fw lichosts the hosts are only those in my own network so
I'm not sure where the problem really is.
After applying HFA-12 the error messages in the event manager aren't no
longer written as 'incidents' but as 'information'.
In my security ruleset I prevent my internal hosts from accessing
directly the Internet, they must pass through the proxy server which is
in the DMZ.
I have rules like this :
Any ->proxy->http/https/ftp/smtp - accept
Proxy->any->http/https/ftp/smtp - accept
Lan->any->any - deny

Well my network looks like this :
http://img97.exs.cx:81/img97/4601/schemasimple3nl.png

If you think I should make corrections, please do so.

Thank you.

Yannick

Does this firewall have an Express License ? Look at the output of the
fw lichosts to try and pinpoint the problem. Do connections come
directly to the DMZ and not through the external interface of the
firewall ?
