Configuring CLM for Check Point Provider-1 Firewalls

Configuring CLM for Check Point Provider-1 Firewalls

Prequisites

  • You must first configure and discover the Check Point CLA and obtain the AO Client SIC before you can configure the Customer Log Module (CLM). The AO Client SIC is generated when you create the FortiSIEM OPSEC application.

Discover Paired Components on the Same Collector or Supervisor

Discovery of the MLM requires the certificate of the MDS, and discovery of the CLM requires the certificate of the CMA. Make sure that you discover the MDS & MLM pair, and the CMA & CLM pair, on the same Supervisor or Collector. If you attempt to discover them on separate Collectors, discovery will fail.
