Viewing Configuration Logs
After the Check Point Appliance is successfully configured from a USB drive, a log is created.
•
The log file is called
autonconf.
<MAC>.<timestamp>.<log>
•
The log file is created in the USB root directory and in
/tmp
on the appliance.
Troubleshooting Configuration Files
This section discusses the scenario where the configuration file fails and the Check Point
Appliance is not fully configured.
Configuration File Error
If there is an error and the configuration file fails, the appliance is not fully configured and is no
longer in the initial default condition. The commands in the configuration file that show before the
error are applied to the appliance. You can examine the configuration log to find where the error
occurred.
When the appliance is not fully configured, the First Time Configuration Wizard shows in the Web
UI. However, not all of the settings from the failed configuration file show in the First Time
Configuration Wizard.
Best Practice
- Check Point recommends that you do not use the First Time Configuration Wizard
to configure an appliance when the configuration file fails. Restore the default settings to a
partially configured appliance before you use the First Time Configuration Wizard to ensure that
the appliance is configured correctly.
Suggested Workflow - Configuration File Error
This section contains a suggested workflow that explains what to do if there is an error with the
configuration file on a USB drive. Use the
set property USB_auto_configuration
(on page
) command when you run a configuration file script on a configured appliance.
1.
The USB drive with the configuration file is inserted into a USB port on the Check Point
Appliance.
2.
The USB LED on the front panel blinks red. There is a problem with the configuration file
script.
