Here's what you need to do;

- Static NAT your management server object
- In NAT properties of your object, check "Apply for Firewall-1 & VPN-1 control connections" option.

This will allow the remote fw to send logs to mgmt sever.

If the "Apply for Firewall-1 & VPN-1 control connections" box is not check and static NAT is enabled you will be able to push policies to remote fw module sucessufully (but will have an error) consequently, remote fw won't be able to send logs to mgmt server. I think this is your situation.

What reinhard is referring to is the "dummy-object" approach where you define the
 secondary mgmt object with static-IP of your management server.

However, if I am not mistaken, starting with R55 and higher, in the management server object itself, you have a check box where you can specify that your management is behind your local firewall so that it knows what to do. There is
 still limitation to this though.

The best idea, in my opinion, is to give your management a public IP address and route this IP through your local firewall. That way, you will not have any problems because checkpoint uses SIC and certificate and when NAT is involved, there can be problems. From a technical point of view, there is no difference between static NAT and public IP because the whole world knows your public IP anyway. What matter is what you do on the security policy of the local firewall to protect your
 management server windows 2003.

FYI, I ran into this problem all the times especially when the managment server is sitting behind a Cisco Pix firewall. The solution is to either go with what Reinhard described above (keep in mind that there are limitations with what you can do with this approach due to SIC and certificate), or go assigned public IP to your management server. I usually go with the later approach if I know that I have a very strong security policy on the Cisco Pix (in your case, your local checkpoint
 firewall).

 my 2 cents.

the best idea for that is to define a secondary mgmt object with

then define this object as log-server and mgmt-server for your remote gateway.

Hi,

I have a central magagment server and two firewalls, one on the same lan
as the managment server and one remote.
I get logs for the local firewall but not for the remote.

I have a rule for this FW to Managment server allow FW1_log
I can get the log trough remote file managment.

The firewalls are Nokia with 3.8.1-BUILD029 and CPfw1-R55p
The managment server is a windows 2003

The setup for the local and remote firewall are the same.
At Logs and Masters:
Schedule log switch at Midnight

Aditional logging
Forward logs to Managment server
Schedule at Midnight

Masters
Define Masters -> Managment server

Log Servers
Define Log servers -> Managment Server

What must i do to get his working ?

TIA
