RE: [FW1] Solaris and IP-Forwarding and 64bit kernel



Disable 64-bit mode

An easy way to do this would be to cd /platform/sun4u and edit the boot.conf
file.  You would just comment out the line for 64-bit mode and reboot the
machine.

As for IP forwarding, if you do not disable IP forwarding in the OS the
system has a window when the firewall is not up and it will forward all
packets that it receives.  This can be a huge security risk!  You should
always disable IP forwarding on a firewall in the OS as well as the firewall
software.

I, too, have a question about the install on Solaris. When installing on
Solaris 2.7, it (CP2000) complains that it won't run with the 64bit kernel.
Does anyone know how to disable that and run 32bits?

Hi everyone,
I have a doubt; the manual says "disable IP Forwarding in the kernel" for
solaris2 before install the Checkpoint FW-1. What happens if I don´t do
that?. It suppose that the "IP Forwarding" opcion on the FW-1 configuration
is enought to control it and disable it if the FW-1 is not running, isn´t
it?
