UDP port 8116 broadcast packets are transmitted to all cluster interfaces, when
State Synchronization is enabled.
Cause
UDP 8116 broadcast are necessary for cluster-status health checks, when a Check
Point ClusterXL clustering solution is implemented. Third-party OPSEC
clustering solutions conduct their own cluster-status health checks, despite
State Synchronization interfaces.
Solution
To stop UDP 8116 broadcast packets on all interfaces, except State
Synchronization interfaces, apply the steps below.
Caution:
Interface monitoring will not be possible, once the steps are completed.
Procedure:
Type at prompt: cphastop
Type: cphaconf -R 1 start
(Ignore the error message about no configuration or no license. High
Availability (HA) is stopped.)
Type: cphastart.
The above steps do not survive reboot. To survive reboot, add the steps to an
operating-system startup script.

Torkel

Emne: Re: [FW-1] CCP broadcasts
It appears that the "new" - "requires tech support contract" is required for
this SK. I am just a lowly CheckPoint instructor who would like to have the
knowledge and no need for a tech support contract. Could someone provide me
with the information or possibly a copy of sk23208.
Thanks
