Conversion of copper ports to fiber on a Checkpoint 16000 running R80.40?

[victoria_bardy]

Hello All,

I have the new task of converting our office firewall cluster interfaces from copper to fiber.  Can anyone here on the forum provide a link to information on how to configure the interfaces?  The cluster is centrally managed so my guess is I will need to add the ports, pull them in on smart console and then I can clean up the old interfaces.  

Please let me know if you do.

Thank you.

Rgds,

Vicky
