Open a Security Gateway / Cluster object properties. 2. Click on the "*Network Management*" pane. 3. The only available option is "`Get Interfaces`", which if accepted, will automatically updated the topology configuration (according to static routes). *Example for Security Gateway* : [![](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/sc/SolutionsStatics/sk118518/GW_Get_Interfaces.png)](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/sc/SolutionsStatics/sk118518/GW_Get_Interfaces.png "Click the image to see it in full size in a new tab/window") *Example for Cluster* : [![](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/sc/SolutionsStatics/sk118518/Cluster_Get_Interfaces.png)](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/sc/SolutionsStatics/sk118518/Cluster_Get_Interfaces.png "Click the image to see it in full size in a new tab/window") ## Cause This is the default behavior in SmartConsole R80 and higher. ## Solution This problem was fixed. The fix is included in: * [R80.10 SmartConsole](https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&solutionid=sk119612) - since *Build 005* For **R80 SmartConsole**, follow these steps in Security Gateway / Cluster object: 1. Open the Security Gateway / Cluster object. 2. In the left tree, click the **Network Management** pane. 3. Select the interface whose topology settings should *not* be updated *automatically* and click the **Edit** button. |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Example for Security Gateway | Example for Cluster | | [![](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/sc/SolutionsStatics/sk118518/GW_1.png)](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/sc/SolutionsStatics/sk118518/GW_1.png "Click the image to see it in full size in a new tab/window") | [![](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/sc/SolutionsStatics/sk118518/Cluster_1.png)](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/sc/SolutionsStatics/sk118518/Cluster_1.png "Click the image to see it in full size in a new tab/window") | 4.
