How to add access rule using CLI in r80.30

Hello,

I want to add an access rule using CLI in firewall r80.30.

Can anyone please guide me to any document or provide the commands?

Thanks!

Access roles can only be added on the management, not directly on the gateway.
Also when you run a standalone setup the only way is to add the access role in the policy on the management and then push the policy to the gateway. Check Point does not use a ACL type rulebase on the gateway, it is compiled on the management server and then sent to the gateway.

To add a rule in a policy on the management server you can use the API of which you can find all documentation online and lotst of information here on the forum.

I am sorry, in my context, "Access rule" means "policy". I was wondering is there a way to add a policy on management server using CLI?

Sorry I have one more doubt on same topic. I was able to create a policy using mgmt_cli. I used this syntax:

mgmt_cli add access-rule layer "my_policy Network" source "43.1.1.3" destination "27.1.1.2" service "any" action "accept" track-settings.type "Log" position "1" name "rule1" install-on "chkpt" --port 4434

My doubt: Can i create a source/destination ip address using cli. Because in this scenario, policy gets install if i have already added a source/destination ip. otherwise throws me an error
code: "generic_err_object_not_found"
message: "Requested object [43.1.1.3] not found"

Nope, for that you first need to create the host object:
mgmt_cli add host name Myhost ip_address 43.1.1.3
Then use Myhost as the source in your access rule.

Thank you for your quick response Maarten. Okay So correct me if I am wrong, if I have to create 1000 policies (working on a script) with 1000 different source ip, i have to create 1000 host object manually first?

Correct.
Note that a given rule can contain multiple source/destination objects.
Also, you can create objects for networks as well.
That might simplify the policy that gets created.

I added multi rule but got error

Line 2: code: "generic_err_invalid_parameter_name"
message: "Unrecognized parameter [action]"

Following this Guide in action field is correct "accept" Why I got still error invalid parameter?

Try it as Accept instead of accept.
Some of the API calls are case sensitive.
