hi,
you can choose between:
'local license'
for every module (smartcenter, gateway1, gateway2, etc) you create
the license with an IP-address of the module. on the mgmt-server you
use the mgmt's IP, on the firewall-module you use any firewall's
'central license'
all licenses are defined with the managedment's IP and moved to the
gateway-modules using the "smartupdate" tool

I have a quick, dumb, question about IP addresses and licensing.
I've got an older VPN-1 gateway (version NG) running on a Windows
host that I am upgrading to new hardware and new software.
The new software will be the VPN UTM package running on
SecurePlatform. I've got the SecurePlatform and firewall software
installed on the new hardware, using temporary IP addresses for the
interfaces (since I will ultimately replace the old gateway and use those IPs).
I have the SmartConsole software installed on a Windows box on the
inside network.
I thought I had read that when setting up the license in the
CheckPoint web site, that the IP address I should use was the IP
address of the management computer, so I used the IP of the Windows
system running SmartConsole. I trust I made the wrong choice?
My NG firewall was licensed in 'local' mode, so it's licensed
against the external IP address.
What IP address should the NGX be licensed on? Internal?
External? What is the difference between 'local' and 'central' mode?
