Remote Management Connection

When using a remote Management Server (Security Management Server or Multi-Domain Server), management traffic travels via an internal or external network to a VSX Gateway to the management interface. This architecture segregates management traffic from all other traffic passing through the VSX Gateway.

Check Point recommends that remote management connections use a dedicated management interface (DMI) that connects directly to a router or switch that leads to the external network or the Internet.
