Check Point conversion wizard
The pages that the Check Point conversion wizard shows depend on whether your source configuration is SmartCenter or Provider-1.
Because Provider-1 uses global and device-level virtual domains that are similar to FortiManager ADOMs, you convert Provider-1 configurations to policy packages and objects for your source firewalls in the FortiManager Policy & Objects database. You can only select FortiManager as the output format on the Start options page.
The administrator password is not set on the new configuration. For third-party conversions, the trusted host settings are converted. Check the trusted host settings to ensure they allow management access from the relevant network interfaces. |
