Changes in IPS packages

[Zachi_Schnieder]

Hi All,

• As part of our on-going security improvement efforts, we plan to introduce some changes in IPS packages
• Target Date for this change: March 26^th, 2023,
• We have identified a limitation in SMB 1400, centrally managed by Smart Center/LSM;
• This limitation is resolved on management side:
  • R81.20 (Future JHF)
  • R81.10 JHF 82
  • R80.40 (Future JHF)
• If the fix is not applied on management side, Policy process will fail with the message "Operation failed, install/uninstall has been improperly terminated".
• If changes on management are not possible during this time, one of the following can be conducted as a temporary mitigation:
  • Disable IPS updates
  • Disable IPS blade (not recommended)
• More details: https://supportcenter.us.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&so...
