VPN setup on CP-1550

Sanjay_S — Mon, 14 Nov 2022 12:18:27 GMT

Hi All,

Want to create an IPsec tunnel from Checkpoint 7000 series to CP-1550 SMB device. Never created the VPN tunnel in CP-1550 so just wanted to know if it is same how we create in 7000 series that is on Smart Dashboard creating community? Or do we need to do anything on the devcie itself?

Regards,

Sanjay S

Hello,

Are the systems hosted by the same Smartcenter(firewall management)? Then it is pretty easy. What you indeed say regarding the VPN community. You can configure everything in Smartdashboard.

Is the 1550 locally managed ? Also easy, see https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/SMB_R80.20.60/AdminGuides/Locally_Managed/EN/Topics/Configuring-VPN.htm?TocPath=_____8, and for Certificate based VPN see How to configure Site-to-Site VPN between Locally Managed Embedded GAIA appliance and Centrally Managed Security Gateway using certificates

For centrally managed see https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/SMB_R80.20.60/AdminGuides/Centrally_Managed/EN/Topics/Configuring-Gateway-and-Cluster-Objects.htm?TocPath=Small-scale%20Deployment%20Installation%7C_____1
