LDAP to local ActiveDirectory via Smart-1 cloud

Wolfgang — Wed, 24 May 2023 05:24:22 GMT

With GAiA gateways managed by Smart-1 cloud it's possible to connect to an on premise ActiveDirectory via the AD/LDAP-proxy feature on a Smart-1 cloud managed gateway.

But how about SMB appliances ? We have an environment only with SMB aplliances, will be the same way via AD/LDAP-proxy on a SMB appliance supported ?

I believe the limitation of AD proxy is now lifted and supported on SMB in R81.10.XX and R81.20 Mgmt.
Not sure about Smart-1 Cloud though it should now support R81.20...

Check Point R81.10.X for 1500, 1600, and 1800 appliance Known Limitations and Resolved Issues

SMB-16255

Identity Awareness Gateway as an Active Directory Proxy feature is not supported on 1500, 1600, and 1800 Quantum Spark Appliances.

R81.10.00

R81.10.00 for R81.20 management

I know this setting, this is mentioned in my question. But is it supported and working with SMB appliances managed by Smart-1 cloud ?

As long as your tenant is on R81.20 and you're running R81.10.xx code, yes.
