Did you know that you can easily get traffic statistics on your Security Gateway with CPMonitor tool?

The CPMonitor utility analyzes traffic captured by tcpdump / snoop / Check Point FW Monitor.

It parses the input traffic capture file and extracts valuable information from it, including:

  • Overall traffic statistics (pps, cps, concurrent, throughput)
  • Top connections, top servers and top services
  • Detailed connections, servers and services (with packet size distribution)
  • Per second analysis

It can run on any Gaia machine.

 

For more details, please refer to this SecureKnowledge article.

How is it with the 64bit now when more or less everyone running 64bit.

"
CPMonitor is not supported on a 64-bit based OS.

The following message might be displayed:
"Warning: cpmonitor does not currently support 64 bit. Please run on a 32 bit machine."

I have checked on R80.40 just now, it works for me. 

Asked SK owners for clarification.

@Magnus-Holmberg thanks for bringing this up. After a short internal discussion, 64bit is supported. SK will be updated today to avoid any confusion.
