[All 156-315.81 Questions]

Which method below is NOT one of the ways to communicate using the Management API's?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The correct answer is C) CPM (19009), CPMI (18190) https (443).

SmartConsole is a client application that connects to the Security Management Server to manage and configure the security policy and objects. SmartConsole uses three ports to communicate with the Security Management Server1:

CPM (19009): This port is used for the communication between the SmartConsole client and the Check Point Management (CPM) process on the Security Management Server. The CPM process handles the database operations and the policy installation.

CPMI (18190): This port is used for the communication between the SmartConsole client and the Check Point Management Interface (CPMI) process on the Security Management Server. The CPMI process handles the authentication and encryption of the SmartConsole sessions.

https (443): This port is used for the communication between the SmartConsole client and the web server on the Security Management Server. The web server provides the SmartConsole GUI and the SmartConsole extensions.

The other options are incorrect because they either include ports that are not used by SmartConsole or omit ports that are used by SmartConsole.

Just to clarify, D is also a legit way to communicate.

I remember discussing the mgmt_cli command, but I'm not sure if the clish method is really part of the Management API's. It feels like it could be a trick option.

I practiced a similar question, and I think the dialog box in SmartConsole might not be the right answer. But I can't quite recall why.

I'm a bit unsure, but I feel like sending API commands over an HTTP connection is definitely a valid method. It seems like the others are more about specific interfaces.

I think the method that isn't part of the Management API's might be the one involving Gaia's secure shell. I remember something about it not being a standard way to communicate.

I've got a good feeling about this one. The key is remembering the different methods we covered for interacting with the Management API. I think I can eliminate the wrong answer and select the correct option.

Okay, let me think this through. I know we can use the 'mgmt_cli' command, the SmartConsole GUI, and Gaia's secure shell to send API commands. I'm guessing the 'http connection using web-services' is the one that's not a standard way to communicate with the API.

Okay, I think I've got it. SAS packages are used to import and export SAS metadata, not applications or third-party data. So the correct answer is option D. I feel good about this one.

If I can't use the secure shell, the API, or the GUI, I guess I'll have to communicate with the Management API via interpretive dance. Option C must be the answer.
