fwboot corexl

Description

Configures and monitors the CoreXL.

For more information, see the R80.20 Performance Tuning Administration Guide.

In addition, see the fwboot bootconf command.

Important:

The configuration commands are for Check Point use only. To configure CoreXL, use the Check Point CoreXL option in the cpconfig menu.
After all changes in CoreXL configuration on the Security Gateway, you must reboot it.
In cluster, you must configure all the Cluster Members in the same way.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
No Parameters	Shows the built-in help with available parameters.
`core_count`	Returns the number of CPU cores on this computer. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl core_count [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 4 [Expert@MyGW:0]# [Expert@MyGW:0]# cat /proc/cpuinfo \| grep processor processor : 0 processor : 1 processor : 2 processor : 3 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`curr_instance4_count`	Returns the current configured number of IPv4 CoreXL FW instances. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl curr_instance4_count [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 3 [Expert@MyGW:0]# [Expert@MyGW:0]# fw ctl multik stat ID \| Active \| CPU \| Connections \| Peak ---------------------------------------------- 0 \| Yes \| 3 \| 0 \| 16 1 \| Yes \| 2 \| 0 \| 11 2 \| Yes \| 1 \| 1 \| 29 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`curr_instance6_count`	Returns the current configured number of IPv6 CoreXL FW instances. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl curr_instance6_count [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 2 [Expert@MyGW:0]# [Expert@MyGW:0]# fw6 ctl multik stat ID \| Active \| CPU \| Connections \| Peak ---------------------------------------------- 0 \| Yes \| 3 \| 0 \| 4 1 \| Yes \| 2 \| 0 \| 12 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`def_by_allowed [n]`	Sets the default configuration for CoreXL according to the specified allowed number of CPU cores.
`default`	Sets the default configuration for CoreXL.
`def_instance4_count`	Returns the default number of IPv4 CoreXL FW instances for this Security Gateway. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl def_instance4_count [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 3 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`def_instance6_count`	Returns the default number of IPv4 CoreXL FW instances for this Security Gateway. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl def_instance6_count [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 2 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`[-v] disable`	Disables CoreXL. `-v` - Leaves the high memory (`vmalloc`) unchanged. See the `cp_conf corexl` command.
`eligible`	Returns whether CoreXL can be enabled on this Security Gateway. 0 - CoreXL cannot be enabled 1 - CoreXL can be enabled Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl eligible [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 1 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`[-v] enable [n] [-6 k]`	Enables CoreXL with '`n`' IPv4 FW instances and optionally '`k`' IPv6 FW instances. `-v` - Leaves the high memory (`vmalloc`) unchanged. `n` - Denotes the number of IPv4 CoreXL FW instances. `k` - Denotes the number of IPv6 CoreXL FW instances. See the `cp_conf corexl` command.
`installed`	Returns whether CoreXL is installed (enabled) on this Security Gateway. 0 - CoreXL is not enabled 1 - CoreXL is enabled Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl installed [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 1 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`max_instance4_count`	Returns the maximal allowed number of IPv4 CoreXL FW instances for this Security Gateway. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl max_instance4_count [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 4 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`max_instances4_32bit`	Returns the maximal allowed number of IPv4 CoreXL FW instances for a Security Gateway that runs Gaia with 32-bit kernel. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl max_instances4_32bit [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 14 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`max_instances4_64bit`	Returns the maximal allowed number of IPv4 CoreXL FW instances for a Security Gateway that runs Gaia with 64-bit kernel. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl max_instances4_64bit [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 38 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`max_instance6_count`	Returns the maximal allowed number of IPv6 CoreXL FW instances for this Security Gateway. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl max_instance6_count [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 3 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`max_instances_count`	Returns the total maximal allowed number of CoreXL FW instances (IPv4 and IPv6) for this Security Gateway. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl max_instances_count [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 40 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`max_instances_32bit`	Returns the total maximal allowed number of CoreXL FW instances for a Security Gateway that runs Gaia with 32-bit kernel. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl max_instances_32bit [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 16 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`max_instances_64bit`	Returns the total maximal allowed number of CoreXL FW instances for a Security Gateway that runs Gaia with 64-bit kernel. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl max_instances_64bit [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 40 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`min_instance_count`	Returns the minimal allowed number of IPv4 CoreXL FW instances. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl min_instance_count [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 2 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
`vmalloc_recalculate`	Updates the value of the `vmalloc` parameter in the `/boot/grub/grub.conf` file.
`unsupported_features`	Returns 1 if at least one feature is configured, which CoreXL does not support. Example: [Expert@MyGW:0]# $FWDIR/boot/fwboot corexl unsupported_features corexl unsupported feature: QoS is configured. [Expert@MyGW:0]# echo $? 1 [Expert@MyGW:0]#
