Please elaborate, it is unclear what you are trying to achieve.

Currently we are using the Palo Alto firewall for dynamic list however as per Palo Alto there is no way to extend the limit of 50000 IPs in the Palo Alto Firewall so the alternative is to block on the core Checkpoint firewall.
These are public IPs that will be blocked.

Ok, that's clear enough. So you have a list of IP addresses, and you want to block them on your FWs.

You can use the notion of a dynamic object, explained here: https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&solut...

Dynamic object is basically an empty logical box that can be used in the rules and should be filled with IP addresses on the GW side. Mind, you will need to script the population of the dynamic object in use with GW side scripting.

Another option is to use MGMT API and fill in a certain group on the management side, but every time the list is changed, you will have to re-push policy on GWs.

In the link you provided it says that “A Dynamic Object is a "logical" object that will be resolved to an IP address differently on each Security Gateway using the dynamic_objects command. A rule that uses this Dynamic Object will then be enforced on each Security Gateway on different objects.”
 
I think there is some misunderstanding in the requirement.

Have a look at sk132193 - it describes how to subscribe a gateway to a Custom Intelligence Feed.  Sounds like that might be a better match for your requirements?

Thanks,
Ruan

That is also an option

It does not have to be resolved to _different_ IPs on _different_ GWs. It is up to you to decide how you populate your Dynamic Object

The below article also mentions blocking of IP addresses on Checkpoint and is for the OS version we have. Please check.

Not exactly sure what you expect me to check here.

There are several ways to do this with some assembly required.
This older thread is still applicable and discusses several options: https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Policy-Management/list-of-different-IP-addresses-to-be-blocked/m...

In R81, we should also have custom Updatable Objects that can be fed from your own JSON file.
