Question 1

What is the default Distribution mode?

  • A. User
  • B. Auto-topology
  • C. Manual-General
  • D. Network
Answer:

B


Explanation:
In Check Point firewall, the default Distribution mode is Auto-topology. Auto-topology uses the built-
in algorithm to automatically determine the best way to distribute the traffic across the firewall
cluster, based on the topology of the network and the current load on the cluster members.
Auto-topology takes into account the available bandwidth and the CPU utilization of each cluster
member, and then makes decisions on how to distribute the traffic across the cluster in real-time. It
is a dynamic and adaptive mode that ensures the best use of the available resources and the highest
level of performance.

Question 4

What kind of cluster Dual-Site can be compared to?

  • A. Active-Standby or VSLS
  • B. VSLS only
  • C. Active-Active
  • D. Active-Standby only
Answer:

A


Explanation:
A Dual-Site cluster is a type of cluster that combines the features of both Active-Standby and VSLS
(Virtual Systems Load Sharing) clusters. Dual-Site clusters allow you to have two active clusters, one
at each site, and the traffic is distributed between the two sites based on predefined rules and
priorities.
A Dual-Site cluster can be compared to an Active-Standby cluster because one of the clusters is
running in a passive mode and is only activated in case of a failure or a planned maintenance of the
active cluster. And also can be compared to a VSLS cluster because both clusters are active and share
the traffic load.
It's a type of High Availability solution that provides redundancy and failover capabilities across two
geographically separated sites. In case of a failure or a outage on one site, the traffic is automatically
redirected to the other site, ensuring that the service is not interrupted.
