Is CheckPoint firewall will logging asymmetric route traffic?

Dear All,

Recently, i get a question from my client:

"Is the Checkpoint will log asymmetric traffic that from one source to firewall itself?"

I believe that CheckPoint will log it, but i tried to search on SK and internet browser for further confirmation. Unfortunately, can't found related information.

Hence, I post this question at here to get an answer and I appreciate if someone able to answer this question.

Thank you.

Depending on the scenario it might log the traffic as state or spoofing violations etc

Logging for implied rules is needed to capture this.

I am pretty positive I had seen this type of traffic being logged before.
