Following up on the last post, I reinstalled Check Point SPLAT as planned. The installation again worked without any issues. This time I installed 1G of RAM and 64G of disk from the start. I used the basic RedHat profile offered by VBox. So far everything seems to be working fine. I have installed policies a couple of times and the firewall is generating log entries as expected. I only have the management interface active since I wanted to install pure IPv6 on the others… I expect that shouldn’t make a difference.
Finally, I left the firewall running overnight to see what happens when the PC goes into standby mode and VBox pauses the firewall system. In the morning I woke the PC (moved the mouse) and then connected with SmartDashbord to the firewall. Everything is working as if nothing happened, Tracker still active logging away.
Next step… get Check Point to give me a FW-1/IPv6 license!
