Overview

I am glad to announce that Spark Management (SMP) is available in Infinity Portal (portal.checkpoint.com) as Early Availability.

For more information see sk180467

New SMP OverviewNew SMP Overview

What's new?

The new Spark Management adds some exciting capabilities:

  • MSP friendly multi-tenancy (based on Infinity Portal).

  • Overview page, for quickly getting a complete network status.

  • Immediate onboarding (no need to wait for domain request approval).

  • Single Sign On with 3rd party Identity Providers (Octa, Azure AD etc.).

  • Export to SIEM.

  • Advanced log views and filters and new access view.

  • Integration with Horizon Events.

  • And many more!

Timeline

SMP planned GA date is January 31, 2023

For a short period of time, both legacy SMP and the new SMP application in Infinity Portal will co-exist. Spark Management in Infinity Portal will eventually replace the legacy SMP.

We highly recommend that you start using Spark Management application in Infinity Portal as soon as possible.

Transition from current SMP is very simple, and does not requires any migration.

We encourage you to try the new application and share your feedback.

New Planned Features

  • Operational Events integrated into the “Spark Management” application Dashboard.

  • MSP level tenant dashboard and management from SMP.

  • VPN Tunnel monitoring.

  • Cloud Backup & Restore service for gateway configuration.

  • Zero Touch Portal integration into Spark Management application.

  • Additional views: VPN Remote access, Active devices, and more.

  • What’s New page.

  • UI refresh.

  • And many more! Stay tuned.

We see the error, it is related to the name of the tenant that contains special characters.

We will deliver a fix soon.

Thanks for your feedback.

I would like to ask about API support. Do you plan same support like SMP ? If yes, when we can expect it?

Yes, same API capabilities (and more in the future) are already available using an Infinity Portal API key.
The main difference is the login method and the authentication token which will be used for each API, while the content will remain the same.
The only gap is documentation and we are working to update it accordingly before the GA date.
I will also update here once the documentation has been updated.

Feel free to contact me directly via email if you wish to try it sooner: yahavb@checkpoint.com
