Re: [FW-1] Hub and Spoke VPN

If the rules are the same for every VPN then you should be able to set up
groups to make this management far easier. Create a group for all of the
VPN Encryption domains and use this group to create the no-NAT rule, as
well as the service rules.

Adding a new network from that point forward should be as simple as adding
it to the Encryption Domain Group (Which takes care of the rule and the
NAT), and adding the shared secret for IKE (Assuming you are using IKE)
which CheckPoint will propagate to all of the other firewalls (Assuming
you have an Enterprise Management Console).

If you are not using IKE, are not using a central management console, or
do not have the same rules for all of the VPN's, then please ignore my
ravings.
