This is the version I'm using on Solaris

This is Check Point VPN-1(TM) & FireWall-1(R) Version 4.1 Build 41489
[VPN + DES]
kernel: Version 4.1 [VPN + DES] Build 41487

I've written a little perl script to track connections with the command
"fw tab -t connections" and this is what happen when I install a policy
(at 11:54:24 for the example below).


TIMESTAMP MAX TOT ATTIV CLOSED NOTUSE ESTERN PRODUZ NAVIG 11:44:24 25000 10289 25185046 683 11:45:35 25000 10130 26024878 708 11:46:43 25000 10959 25835179 764 11:47:55 25000 9761 26344659 842 11:49:11 25000 10911 25885312 844 11:50:21 25000 9396 26484571 737 11:51:30 25000 9677 27324771 825 11:52:40 25000 10990 27125217 824 11:53:52 25000 9391 28274603 796 ---- 11:54:57 250000 215 2229 415 11:56:05 250000 282 4045 726 11:57:14 25000 8033 1051 6406 0 351 4120 711 11:58:21 25000 8104 1122 6431 1 343 4081 688 11:59:30 25000 9468 1256 7694 5 362 4720 761 12:00:38 25000 7865 1354 6003 5 384 4078 633 12:01:46 25000 8700 1318 6876 4 391 4139 984 12:02:55 25000 8791 1614 6681 6 421 4567 686 12:04:04 25000 9072 1703 6858 10 427 4766 507 12:05:15 25000 9920 1724 7736 5 470 5169 652 12:06:22 25000 8400 1812 6146 3 444 4399 609

MAX    = max number of configured connection
TOT    = number of connections in connections table
ATTIV  = active connections (not used for a time < timeout/3)
CLOSED = connections closed (with timeout changed to 50s)
NOTUSE = connections not used for a time > timeout/3 ,
        so I think these connections will passed to close without
        receiving a FIN packet
ESTERN = inbound connections
PRODUZ = internal traffic
NAVIG  = our navigation

I see a big change in number of connections when I installed a new
policy (see
the line with ---) and the numbers seems to say that all the connections
where purged from the hash table.

So, because I'm new to Checkpoint administration,
- what's happen ?
- Is there documentation about it ?
- Is there a configuration tips for mantain connections
 during policy installation ?
