Supported Security Gateway Versions

Management Server and Security Gateway Versions

Note - For more information about Security Management Servers and supported managed Security Gateways see sk113113.

R81.20 Management Servers can manage Security Gateways that run these versions:

Gateway Type	Release Version
Security Gateway Dedicated Check Point server that runs Check Point software to inspect traffic and enforce Security Policies for connected network resources.	R81.20, R81.10, R81, R80.40, R80.30, R80.20, R80.10, R77.30
VSX Virtual System Extension. Check Point virtual networking solution, hosted on a computer or cluster with virtual abstractions of Check Point Security Gateways and other network devices. These Virtual Devices provide the same functionality as their physical counterparts.	R81.20, R81.10, R81, R80.40, R80.30, R80.20, R80.10, R77.30
Security Groups A logical group of Security Appliances (in Maestro) / Security Gateway Modules (on Scalable Chassis) that provides Active/Active cluster functionality. A Security Group can contain one or more Security Appliances / Security Gateway Modules. Security Groups work separately and independently from each other. To the production networks, a Security Group appears a single Security Gateway. In Maestro, each Security Group contains: (A) Applicable Uplink ports, to which your production networks are connected; (B) Security Appliances (the Quantum Maestro Orchestrator determines the applicable Downlink ports automatically); (C) Applicable management port, to which the Check Point Management Server is connected. on Maestro	R81.20, R81.10, R81, R80.30SP, R80.20SP
Security Groups on Scalable Chassis The container that contains the all the components of a 60000 / 40000 Appliance. Synonym: Chassis.	R81.20, R81.10, R81, R80.20SP
Quantum Spark, Quantum Rugged, and SMB Appliances	R81.10.X, R80.20.X, R77.20.X

Note - To manage R81.20 Security Gateways / Security Groups:

An R81.10 Management Server Check Point Single-Domain Security Management Server or a Multi-Domain Security Management Server. requires the R81.10 Jumbo Hotfix Accumulator Take 82 or higher (see PRJ-39424).
An R81 Management Server requires the R81 Jumbo Hotfix Accumulator Take 79 or higher (see PRJ-39424).

Management Server and Managed Appliances

R81.20 Management Servers can manage these Security Gateway appliances:

Appliance	Release Version
1500 / 1600 / 1800 Quantum Spark Appliances	R81.10.X^(*), R80.20.X
1200R SMB Appliances	R77.20.X
700 / 1400 SMB Appliances	R77.20.X
600 / 1100 SMB Appliances	R77.20.X
60000 / 40000 Scalable Chassis	R81.20, R81.10, R81, R80.20SP

Notes:

The support for the Quantum Spark 1800 / 1600 / 15x0 models is integrated in the R81.20 Management Server (see sk179615).
To manage the Quantum Spark 15x5 models, an R81.20 Management Server requires the R81.20 Jumbo Hotfix Accumulator Take 26 or higher (see sk179615).

Quantum Maestro Orchestrator and Security Group Versions

R81.20 Quantum Maestro Orchestrator A scalable Network Security System that connects multiple Check Point Security Appliances into a unified system. Synonyms: Orchestrator, Quantum Maestro Orchestrator, Maestro Hyperscale Orchestrator. Acronym: MHO. can manage Maestro Security Groups that run these versions:

R81.20 (see sk177624)
R81.10 (see sk173363)
R81 (see sk169954)
R80.30SP (see sk162552)
R80.20SP (see sk138233)

Important - The major software version on the Orchestrator See "Maestro Orchestrator". must be equal to or higher than the major software version on the managed Security Group.
