Thank you for this feedback.
In case SmartConsole crashes (should be significantly less frequent than R77 by the way - if I'm wrong, I want to be corrected!), the crash report automatically gets sent to Check Point's cloud service in case the user has an Internet connection. The information remains anonymous - just the details of the software crash. So if your SmartConsole had an outside Internet connection, the report should have been sent to us anyway. But I think that you said that you don't have Internet access from that endpoint.
Our bug tracking system is https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com - we cannot use CheckMates for reporting on support issues. This is because the process of fixing things involves:
- getting more details from the customer, things like his environment details, which license he has, and sometimes other aspects to correlate with his problem.
- allocating time from our support and R&D resources
- signaling the issue as fixed / known limitation of one version
- writing an SK with the solution - which can either be "fixed in jumbo hotfix xxx" or "run these steps manually"
- ensuring the fix gets released as a software update for all customers
It is more effective to report on problems through Check Point Support. Please continue to do so. If you want to discuss the Check Point Support process, you can discuss that in CheckMates.
