Management Server Environment
To configure SmartEvent, first establish connectivity between the components.

component of SmartEvent:

Manage > Network Object > New > Check Point > Host
b) In the
General Properties
window, click
Communication
and enter the
activation key.
Note - If the Security Management Server and SmartEvent are installed on
different sides of the firewall, add a rule that allows SIC traffic between them.
