There are different options for first time deployment of your Small and Medium Business (SMB)

Zero Touch Cloud Service
The Zero Touch Cloud Service lets you easily manage the initial deployment of your gateways in
the Zero Touch portal https://zerotouch.checkpoint.com.
Note - You cannot use Zero Touch if you connect to the internet through a proxy server.
Zero Touch enables a gateway to automatically fetch settings from the cloud when it is connected
to the internet for the first time.
Note - The appliance is fully configured after you complete the First Time Configuration Wizard
(click Finish on the final screen or click Quit on an earlier screen after you enter a username and
password). To use the Zero Touch Cloud Service after this point, you must first restore the factory
defaults.
If the gateway connects to the internet using DHCP, the gateway fetches the Zero Touch settings
without any additional action. If no DHCP service is available, you must run the First Time
Configuration Wizard, configure the Internet Connection settings, and then fetch the settings from
the Zero Touch server.
