Is there a plan to incorporate no reboot for Endpoint Upgrades with Full Disk Encryption in later releases of CheckPoint Endpoint?

Keep getting a "Connection Failed - Site not responding" MacOS 10.14 (Mojave). Is that a known issue?

[Danny]

I'm having the same issue with Mojave. Authentication succeeded, then failed to establish connection. The E80.89 Mac Client Known Limitations isn't listing it.

Step 1: Authentication succeeded hangs for about 30sec..

Step 2: Negotiation with site failed error message is shown..

Step 3: The E80.89 Windows client has no issues and correctly asks for the password after certificate authentication completed successfully, then connects without any issues.
