There are two ways to integrate STRM with Check Point Firewalls devices.

1. Using Syslog

On Check Point management station, you can follow these steps to redirect firewall logs and audit logs to the external syslog server:

a) Vi /etc/syslog.conf, on the management station, and add the following line at the end of the file:

local5.info @hostname

such as :

          local5.info @10.9.20.23

where ‘10.9.20.23’ is the IP of the syslog server (Juniper STRM).

b) if your management server is SecurePlatform – Execute ‘service syslog restart’.

c) Add this command to /etc/rc.d/init.d/cpboot:

fw log -ftnl | logger -p local5.info -t Firewall &
or 

forward audit log to external syslog server by add following command:

fw log -ftnl $FWDIR/fw.adtlog | awk ‘NF’ | logger -p local5.info -t Firewall_Audit &

d) reboot Checkpoint management server and configure a new log source in STRM. Deploy Changes to STRM as well.

e) Verify:

tcpdump host 10.9.20.23

[[email protected]]# tcpdump host 10.9.20.23
tcpdump: listening on Mgmt

12:54:28.540703 CP-Management.syslog > 10.9.20.23.syslog: udp 249 (DF)
12:54:28.543712 CP-Management.syslog > 10.9.20.23.syslog: udp 16 (DF)
12:54:28.544410 CP-Management.syslog > 10.9.20.23.syslog: udp 225 (DF)

On STRM server 10.9.20.23, you should be able to see following logs activities:

Checkpoint+STRM+Log.png?resize=640%2C404Checkpoint+STRM+Log.png?resize=640%2C404

2. Using OPSEC / LEA

a. Creating an OPSEC Application Object from Servers and OPSEC tab:

In my lab, STRM_10.9.200.23 created.
2014-10-15_12-14-50.png2014-10-15_12-14-50.png
2014-10-15_12-13-59.png?resize=640%2C4732014-10-15_12-13-59.png?resize=640%2C473

Note: Communication Initialized but trust not established, it is still fine to do firewall policy push. The communication will be established by itself after STRM configuration part done.

b. Write Down and Copy Two SIC DN info for STRM configuration

One is from new created OPSEC application: STRM_10.9.200.23
CN=STRM_10.9.200.23,O=CP-Management..wtx8w4

Another is from Mgmt Server CP_Management as show below:

cn=cp_mgmt,o=CP-Management..wtx8w4

c. STRM Log Source

 d. add a new Checkpoint Firewall-1 OPSEC / LEA log Source

e. Verify SIC Connection from Checkpoint Mgmt Server OPSEC Application STRM_10.9.200.23
