Import html format policy in to SmartCenter

[Mayur_PAthak]

I have policy in html format created using web visualization tool. Can I import this into new SmartCenter server without manually writing each rule and object?

I'll start by saying that there may be others who can answer the question posed.

Did the html policy happen to come from an existing SmartCenter server?  If so, do you still have access to it to run an upgrade_export?

Would you consider taking one of the scripts listed in the repository and adapting it to take an HTML input?

Hello Jason,

Yes, html policy comes from an existing SmartCenter. Company is split and SmartCenter server is now owned by another company. They are not ready to provide upgrade_export.

I didn’t understand what you mean by scripts listed un the repository. Can you please explain which repository, scripts and where would that be in SmartCenter?

thanks and regards

I forgot to be more specific, here is a link to a powershell library that someone wrote: https://community.checkpoint.com/docs/DOC-2163

You could recreate/export into a spreadsheet and use this powershell to push into R80 (I'm assuming this is what you have).

Great! I kind of see light end of tunnel

Would this work for R77.30 ? That’s what I am using.

thanks and regards

Those scripts leverage the R80(.10) API.

However, you need only upgrade your management to this release, you can keep your gateways on R77.30 for now.
