CheckPoint 156-587 Exam - Topic 9 Question 26 Discussion

Dynamic log distribution is a feature that allows the Security Gateway to distribute logs between the active Log Servers, instead of sending a copy of every log to each Log Server.This feature was introduced in Check Point R81.10 version, and it requires both the Management and the Gateways to be at least on version R81.10 for this to be supported12.With dynamic log distribution, the Gateway can optimize the disk space usage and network bandwidth consumption of the Log Servers, and also improve the performance and reliability of the logging system3.Reference: Dynamic logs distribution - Check Point CheckMates1, (CCTE) - Check Point Software2, SmartLog and SmartEvent R81.10 Administration Guide3
