CoreXL limitations on R80.30

[Nick_Doropoulos]

Can I just confirm that the existence of route-based VPN does not allow CoreXL to be used even on R80.30?

According to the CoreXL limitations as per sk61701 it would appear that that is the case but I wanted to double-check anyway.

Thanks.

As i read in sk61701 CoreXL Known Limitations: 

The following features/settings are not supported in CoreXL:

1. Check Point QoS (Quality of Service) ⁽¹⁾
2. 'Traffic View' in SmartView Monitor ⁽²⁾(all other views are available)
3. Route-based VPN ⁽³⁾
4. IP Pool NAT ⁽⁴⁾
5. IPv6 ⁽⁵⁾

^....

^Notes:

1. Supported in R77.10 and above (refer to sk98229)
2. Supported in R75.30 and above
3. Supported in R77.20 with Take_169of R77.20 Jumbo Hotfix and with MultiCore VPN Hotfix (contact Check Point Solution Center)
   Supported in R80.10 by default (due to integrated MultiCore VPN - sk118097)
   Important Note:MultiCore VPN Hotfix is not available for R77.30
4. Supported in R75.40 and above (refer to sk76800and to sk105886)
5. Supported in R75.40 and above on Gaia/SecurePlatform/XOS only

So why the question at all ?

[Timothy_Hall]

CoreXL and route-based VPNs (VTIs) can be used together on an R80.10+ gateway.  There were some special hotfixes in earlier releases that allowed this as well, but they were mainstreamed in R80.10.

Thanks Tim,

That's quite interesting... Can similar special hotfixes be provided on R80.30? I don't know if somebody from the Check Point team could answer this.

Thanks.

This limitation was removed in R80.10 with Multi-Core VPN

Here is sk118097

I did post that the limitation was resolved citing from the same sk already five days earlier...
