 A certificate-based VPN tunnel between two gateways with separate management systems requires mutually trusted certificate authorities. This means that each gateway must have a certificate issued by a certificate authority (CA) that the other gateway trusts. The CA can be either an internal CA or an external CA. The CA issues certificates that contain the public key and identity information of the gateway. The gateway uses its private key to sign and encrypt the VPN traffic. The other gateway can verify the signature and decrypt the traffic using the public key in the certificate. This ensures the authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality of the VPN tunnel.

 You can use the cphaprob -a if command to check the status of the virtual cluster interface1. This command displays the state, virtual IP address, and physical IP address of each cluster interface2. It also shows the load balancing method, the load on each interface, and the active member for each interface2. This command can help you verify that Alice configured the virtual cluster interface correctly and that it is working properly. To run this command, you need to access the cluster member in Clish and run cphaprob -a if1.

Endpoint Security VPN is a lightweight remote access client that supports Windows and macOS computers. It provides secure connectivity to corporate resources using L2TP/IPSec, SSL, or Check Point’s proprietary VPN protocol. Endpoint Security VPN also integrates with other Endpoint Security products such as SandBlast Agent, Full Disk Encryption, Media Encryption, and Firewall.

The type of Endpoint Identity Agent that does not exist is Terminal. Endpoint Identity Agent is a software component that runs on Windows or Mac devices and provides identity information to the Check Point Security Gateway. Endpoint Identity Agent allows the Security Gateway to enforce granular access policies based on user identity and device compliance status. There are three types of Endpoint Identity Agent:

• Full Identity Agent - a persistent agent that provides seamless and transparent identity acquisition and SSO (single sign-on) capabilities. It supports various authentication methods, such as Active Directory, LDAP, RADIUS, certificate, etc. It also supports endpoint compliance checks and remediation actions.
• Light Identity Agent - a lightweight agent that provides identity acquisition through a web browser. It supports Active Directory authentication only. It does not support SSO or endpoint compliance features.
• Custom Identity Agent - a customized agent that provides identity acquisition through an API. It allows third-party applications or systems to integrate with Check Point Identity Awareness and provide user identity information.

Terminal is not a type of Endpoint Identity Agent, but it is a type of Terminal Server Agent. Terminal Server Agent is a software component that runs on Windows Terminal Servers or Citrix Servers and provides identity information for multiple concurrent users who connect to these servers using Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) or Independent Computing Architecture (ICA) protocol. Terminal Server Agent allows the Security Gateway to enforce granular access policies based on user identity and session information.
