CheckPoint Exam 156-315.81 Topic 9 Question 29 Discussion

The correct answer is C) CPM (19009), CPMI (18190) https (443).

SmartConsole is a client application that connects to the Security Management Server to manage and configure the security policy and objects. SmartConsole uses three ports to communicate with the Security Management Server1:

CPM (19009): This port is used for the communication between the SmartConsole client and the Check Point Management (CPM) process on the Security Management Server. The CPM process handles the database operations and the policy installation.

CPMI (18190): This port is used for the communication between the SmartConsole client and the Check Point Management Interface (CPMI) process on the Security Management Server. The CPMI process handles the authentication and encryption of the SmartConsole sessions.

https (443): This port is used for the communication between the SmartConsole client and the web server on the Security Management Server. The web server provides the SmartConsole GUI and the SmartConsole extensions.

The other options are incorrect because they either include ports that are not used by SmartConsole or omit ports that are used by SmartConsole.
