I have gotten it to work either way, but CheckPoint may not support you if
you do not license the external interface.
ie- Best Practice would be to use external.
Internal is obviously easier, especially if you may change ISP's...

Hoang, what happens if you license your primary and secondary firewalls with
an internal private address as oppose to a public real address? Could this
be the reason why I'm having problems implementing VPN??

Hi
the Primary IP address is the IP that will be IP address of
external
interface. This is IP address do you license.
For your solaris system the Primary IP address is the first
IP you
defined while installed your system.

At WEB site, http://www.phoneboy.com/fw1/,
in QA article about licensing (Which IP Address do I
License?),
"IP address-based licensing, you must license on the
interface which is
up and Primary IP-address (not Sencondary)."What is the
primary IP-
address?
What is the definition of Primary IP-address?

know.thanks in
advance.
