SMB 1450 appliance failed to fetch policy

Tobse-- — Fri, 21 Aug 2020 14:28:25 GMT

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to connect a 1450 SMB appliance to my R80.40 Management Server without success.

SIC Communication is working fine and both report it is okay without issues. But the issue is that the policy can not be fetched by the Gateway:

Security Management Server (show version all):

Product version Check Point Gaia R80.40
OS build 294
OS kernel version 3.10.0-957.21.3cpx86_64
OS edition 64-bit

1450 SMB appliance:

R77.20.87 (990173042)

I'm kind of stuck right now 😞 Not sure what else to check, apart from the Security Logs.

Let me know if you need further information.
Thank you for your support in advance!

Force policy installation from Smart Console and it will start working again.

How can I force the policy install from Smart Console?
The gateway is not listed as Policy target when I want to publish and install the policy.

Add it as a Policy Target ?

I've started all over and added the gateway again and now I was able to select it as Policy Target.

I could swear this was not working before manually. But I know that it was most probably just my last week brain.

Mea Culpa! Sorry, that was ridiculous..
