Hi John, 

Can you confirm that you have reviewed:

How to migrate a competitor's database to Check Point with SmartMove  

Specifically the Fortinet section. What's the version of the Fortinet gateway you are migrating from?

Regards

Hello Guys,



I am new here, this is my first time post here.



I have a Project to migrate the from Checkpoint to Fortinet.

My questions are, what do i have to consider in advance regarding the chcekpoint point view of you please?

Does anyone has the steps i need to take before the migration please? 

My concern is the NAT rules, not sure the impact will be.

Any advice and suggestions appreciated. 



Thank you in advance.

Please see the steps after the migrations , step 6.
