Question regarding Security Gateway and Security Management Images

[mutyumu]

Hi,

I'm new to the Check Point world and since I will have the opportunity to work with CP firewalls in my new job I wanted to do some labbing and reading.

I'm using eve-ng and found this: https://www.eve-ng.net/documentation/howto-s/125-howto-add-checkpoint

So after signing up here I downloaded three images:

The one for R80.10 doesn't specify if it's for Security Gateway or Security Management. Is that one some sort of standalone image or perhaps it's just the Gateway?

If it is a standalone image, is there something similar for R80.30?

I realize that this might be a stupid question but I couldn't find any concrete information.

Thanks.

R80.10 and earlier images can be installed as either.
For R80.20 and R80.30, there are specific images for gateway and management as management releases are using a different Linux kernel (3.10) than gateway releases (2.6.18).
Gateway releases can be installed as management as well.
