R82 Dynamic policy layer

Moudar — Thu, 24 Oct 2024 08:52:28 GMT

I was reading about the new Dynamic policy layer:

Introduction Starting from R82, it is possible to configure Access Control rules directly on the Security Gateway with the Gaia API call "set-dynamic-content". This saves time and helps automate various tasks. On the Management Server, you configure a new Policy Layer (and configure it as a Dynamic Layer). On the Security Gateway, this Dynamic Layer works as a container for all Access Control rules you configure with the Gaia API call "set-dynamic-content".

I cannot find the "set-dynamic-content" API command on Gaia API 1.7

What do I miss here?

Currently, the only place the GAIA API 1.8 is available is the R82 machine itself:

https://<IP_Address_of_Gaia_Management_Interface>/gaia_docs/?#web/set-dynamic-content~v1.8%20

Link in https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk182252 to the API is only 1.7...

Thats API is only valid from API v1.8, for which the documentation is not yet published to the web.
It is, however, available on your local R82 management station as @G_W_Albrecht described.

Looks like the Gaia API documentation on the web has been updated with v1.8 (R82) content: https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/latest/GaiaAPIs/#introduction~v1.8%20
