Terminology
The following terms are used in this guide:
 Gateway: The security engine that enforces the organization’s security policy and acts as a
security enforcement point.
 Security Policy: The policy created by the system administrator that regulates the flow of
incoming and outgoing communication.
 Security Management Server: The server used by the system administrator to manage
the security policy. The organization’s databases and security policies are stored on the
Security Management Server and downloaded to the gateway.
 SmartConsole: GUI applications that are used to manage various aspects of security
policy enforcement. For example, SmartView Tracker is a SmartConsole application that
manages logs.
 SmartDashboard: A SmartConsole GUI application that is used by the system
administrator to create and manage the security policy.
 Locally Managed Deployment: When all Check Point components responsible for both
the management and enforcement of the security policy (the Security Management Server
and the gateway) are installed on the same machine.
 Centrally Managed Deployment: When the gateway and the Security Management
Server are installed on separate machines.
