Sensors Monitoring with SNMP on Check Point Appliances

On Check Point appliances the hardware status can be monitored using the Web interface and SNMP polling, or by defining the SNMP trap using the cp_monitor mechanism. SNMP monitoring rules are defined in the snmpd.conf configuration file. For full details see SNMP Monitoring.

Examples of cp_monitor for the different Check Point Appliances are described in SecureKnowledge solution sk42426.

Sensors Monitoring Using the Web Interface

se the Web interface (WebUI) to monitor the hardware sensors on Check Point appliances. The Hardware Sensors page provides information about temperature, voltage and fan speed of the appliance. A warning is displayed if one of the values exceeds the threshold’s values. The thresholds are hard-coded in the hardware.
