I believe that the Firewall only uses the dual cpu for security server proccesses, but there is no multi-threading for the Firewall inspect engine. Any corrections?

I was told no when I went through the Checkpoint Certification.  It benefits from a good amount of memory.

Hello!,

I would like to instal CP-2000 on Dual CPU Solaris machine.

Does CP-2000 software know to use more than one CPU ?. Is there any special configuration which should be done ?.

 

Thanks,

Arie Gilboa
