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.

R82 Management Servers can manage Security Gateways that run only these versions and modes:

Gateway Type	Mode	Release Version
Security Gateways, ClusterXL, VRRP Cluster Two or more Security Gateways that work together in a redundant configuration - High Availability, or Load Sharing.	Gateway	R82, R81.20, R81.10, R81, R80.40, R80.30, R80.20, R80.10
Security Gateways, 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. Cluster	Legacy VSX	R82, R81.20, R81.10, R81, R80.40, R80.30, R80.20, R80.10
ElasticXL Cluster	Gateway	R82
ElasticXL Cluster	VSNext	R82
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. in Maestro	Gateway	R82, R81.20, R81.10, R81, R80.30SP, R80.20SP
Security Groups in Maestro	VSNext	R82
Security Groups in Maestro	Legacy VSX	R81.20, R81.10, R81, R80.40, R80.30, R80.20, R80.10
Security Groups on Scalable Chassis The container that contains the all the components of a 60000 / 40000 Appliance. Synonym: Chassis.	Gateway	R82, R81.20, R81.10, R81, R80.20SP
Security Groups on Scalable Chassis	Legacy VSX	R82, R81.20, R81.10, R81, R80.20SP
Quantum Spark, Quantum Rugged, and SMB Appliances	Gateway	R81.10.X, R80.20.X, R77.20.8X

Notes:

Management Servers R81.20 and lower cannot manage R82 Security Gateways / Security Groups / Clusters.
Management Servers R82 do not support Security Gateways and VSX Gateways R77.30 or lower.

Quantum Maestro Orchestrator and Security Group Versions

R82 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:

R82
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.
