I laugh every time someone says "Hey gang", cause my colleague starts literally EVERY email that way...well, to us, not customers LOL

Anyway brother, its possble...you just have to create a rule in smart event policy for it. Will check it tomorrow and update you. Im thining something like this:

Go to Policy → Event Policy.
Add a rule with filter:
- Product: VPN-1 & FireWall-1
- Category: VPN
- Action: Authentication / Login (depending on log type)
- You can further refine by Client Type = Check Point Mobile if you only want Mobile client logins.

Not sure if what I attached would do, but will do some tests tomorrow.

Morning Brother! I tested this morning and can't seem to get it to work. I have other email alerts from SmartEvent -, but I can't seem to get it to work with "User Defined Events". Let me post some config pics:

FYFOC -> for you free of charge 😉

We use eve-ng, I LOVE it, you can literally spin any VM in less than 5. I just "slap" on local eval for everything and call it a day haha
