Syntax

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`-o\|-overwrite`	On a Security Management Server, this erases all existing licenses and replaces them with the new licenses. On a Check Point Security Gateway, this erases only the local licenses, but not central licenses that are installed remotely.
`-c\|-check-only`	Verifies the license. Checks if the IP of the license matches the machine and if the signature is valid.
`-s\|-select`	Selects only the local license whose IP address matches the IP address of the machine.
`-F <`Output File`>`	Outputs the result of the command to the designated file rather than to the screen.
`-P\|-Pre-boot`	Use this option after you have upgraded and before you reboot the machine. Use of this option will prevent certain error messages.
`-K\|-kernel`-`only`	Pushes the current valid licenses to the kernel. For use by Check Point Support only.
`-l <`License File`>`	Name of the file that contains the license.
`<`Host`>`	Hostname or IP address of Security Management Server.
`<`Expiration Date`>`	The license expiration date.
