-
If not already configured, set up the Check Point Gateway to route all the
internet traffic via HTTP Proxy (if configuring HTTPS Inspection).
Hinweis:For URL blocking on Check Point NGTP, there are certain settings that needs to be ensured. HTTPS internet traffic uses the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol and is encrypted to give data privacy. However, HTTPS can hide malicious traffic which should have been blocked. For Check Point Gateway to get the visibility into HTTPS traffic, either route the traffic via HTTP Proxy or setup HTTPS Inspection(recommended). This section details the steps to follow to setup HTTP Proxy on Check Point Gateway.
- Login to Smart Console.
-
Navigate to Servers and Gateways, and
double-click on the applicable server.
-
Navigate to Network Management > Proxy.
- Provide the Proxy Details to be used for routing the HTTP traffic.
- Ensure that HTTP requests from Client Endpoint are via the HTTP Proxy.
-
If not already configured, enable HTTPS inspection (if HTTP Proxy
configured).
When most of the traffic is over SSL, it is recommended to use HTTPS Inspection Blade. This makes the traffic transparent to GW. Enable HTTPS Inspection on Check Point Gateway, as follows.
- Login to Smart Console.
- Navigate to Servers and Gateways, and double-click on the applicable server.
-
Navigate to HTTPS Inspection.
- Follow the steps to configure HTTPS Inspection in the Check Point User Guide.
