  • 1.  Integrate checkpoint firewall

    Posted Thu May 13, 2021 12:00 PM
    Hello community,
    Im trying to integrating the checkpoint firewall to qradar, i tried 2 diferent protocol and none of those worked to me.
    I tried the syslog integration but i only received operative system events, i followed this guide:
    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/dsm?topic=point-integrate-check-by-using-syslog#c_dsm_guide_checkpoint_firewall1_syslogintegration
    I tried to integrate it using OPSEC/LEA but i'm having different problems:
    1) I have 2 gateways, 1 device where gateways are connected to and 1 manager, as i know in the log source i have to use the manager IP, is that ok?
    2) Using the manager IP i see this errors in the qradar.error log:

    I exported the certificate and copied it to the collector but i see the same error, the only error that is not generating again is the certificate error.

    I would like to know if some of you had success integrating the checkpoint firewall to qradar, what is the best protocol to use and what i'm doing bad.

    I really would appreciate if some of you could help me with this.

    I recall someone told me last year they had problems integrating using OPSEC/LEA, and ended up enabling 3DES on CheckPoint side after reading this and this.
