R80 Endpoint URL Filtering

[18568]

The process to install URL Filtering rules for Endpoints described in sk112932 is only for versions R77.30.x. I can actually confirm that in R80.20M1 the process eps_policy_fetcher doesn't exist on the management so it is not possible.

Therefore, is URL Filtering on Endpoint not supported with R80.20M1 Endpoint Management (it is not in any known limitations I found)? Or is there maybe another process?

Is it also not supported in R80.20? If that is the case for both, is there a plan to bring the feature back in R80 or is Checkpoint just giving up on this feature?

I have opened a case for this question but they are just giving me confused opposite answers so I'm hoping someone here will actually have the information (remind me to never open cases on a Friday - dealing with US TAC is painful).

It should be in R80.20 per R80.20 GA and R80.20 Management Feature Release Resolved Issues.

Thank you! Nobody could point me to this SK in the support case ...

If it is of help for anyone, a hotfix actually exists to enable Endpoint URL Filtering for R80.20M1 (my SR was finally transferred to someone in Israel who knew more).

The name of the hotfix is fw1_wrapper_HOTFIX_HALO_M1_BASE_HF_007_GA_FULL.tgz
