Overview
These scripts copy objects from a given local domain to the global domain.
These scripts use the Python library Python library for using the management APIs
Description
- In order to clone single object that his type is known run 'local_<object type>_to_global.py' -o <Object id> <Flags>
- In order to clone single object that his type is unknown run 'local_object_to_global.py' -o <Object id> <Flags>
- In order to clone more than one object :
- Add tag with <Tag name> (using SmartConsole or add-tag command on the command line) to the objects that need to be cloned.
- Run 'local_global_by_tag.py' <Tag name> <Flags>
Flags:
mandatory:
- -d <local domain name> : The local domain that contains the object that need to be cloned.
- -n <prefix>: The new global object name will be as follow : prefix_<local_object_name>.
mandatory if running the script not on the management server:
- -s <Server IP> :The IP address or name of the Check Point Management Server.
- -u <User name>
optional
- -p <port number> : Default value '443'
- -g <Global domain name> : Default value 'Global'
Notes :
1. The script supports only the following objects types: host, network, address_range, network group, tcp service, udp service, service group.
For objects that are not one of these types, the script will not clone them and print an error.
2. In case a group object needs to be cloned, the script will clone the group and all the objects it contains.
3. Objects that contain the 'nat-settings' field will be cloned without this filed.
The scripts creates:
1. logfile.txt
2. json_objects.json contains list of {<original object uid> : <cloned global object uid>}
3. csv_file.csv contains {<original object uid>, <original object name>, <cloned global object name> <cloned global object uid>}
In case the global object wasn't created the <cloned global object name> <cloned global object uid> will remain empty.
