Hello,

I need to add bulk of objects and IP addresses to the SMB 1500 appliances.

How can I add bulk of objects and IP addresses to the SMB 1500 appliances from CLI command?

Thank you.

Hello again,

Just wanted to share this, I found this Solution ID: sk155012 but I have ran the below command and it is working on SMB 1500 appliances to create an object with name and IP address:

add host ipv4-address <IP address> name <object name>

Thank you.

Hi,

a. For types of operations like this I suggest using API. You can use this reference to Check Point APIs: https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/latest/api_reference/index.html

b. We had in this forum under the API board some solutions. I suggest giving them a try:

However, the API on locally managed SMB appliance is different as you basically send it clish commands:

Yes, some adjustments should be made but the tool in general is something worth exploring.
