Threat Emulation Local emulation - Requires CPU Virtualization error

Forsaken_61 — Fri, 20 Oct 2023 10:00:41 GMT

I'm running local TE-boxes, the X-series with the latest GAiA OS. Updated yesterday.

I get error an error under the Threat Emulation blade. It say's "Threat Emulation requires CPU Virtualization, and it is not supported on the Security Gateway or Emulation appliance, see sk92375".

The article sk92375 related to GAiA OS that Is EOL. I'm running the latest OS.

Do I really need to follow to guidelines on sk92375 and console In to the TE-boxes and enable intel virtualization technoligy? If so, why Isn't this enabled by default?

Thanks

I would suggest to contact TAC - this seems not as it should be.

To change any BIOS config on a Check Point appliance, it would need to be done by TAC.
Why it's not enabled on your specific TE appliance...can't say, and I suggest involving TAC: https://help.checkpoint.com
