Follow the instructions in the HTML upgrade report. 2. After the issue is resolved, start the entire upgrade again. | R80.40 |
> | PMTR-17316 | To upgrade a Security Gateway with [ICAP Client hotfix](https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&solutionid=sk111305) to a R80.40 Security Gateway: 1. On the origin Security Gateway, back up the current ICAP Client configuration file (*$FWDIR/conf/icap_client_blade_configuration.C*). 2. Upgrade the Security Gateway to R80.40, or perform a Clean Install of the R80.40 Security Gateway. 3. Configure the ICAP Client from scratch as described in the R80.40 Next Generation Security Gateway Guide - Chapter "ICAP Client". Note: * You can use the backed up ICAP Client configuration file from the R77.30 Security Gateway as a reference only. * You must explicitly confirm the disclaimer (run the script *IcapDisclaimer.sh* in the Expert mode). 4. To inspect the HTTPS traffic with the ICAP Client, enable the HTTPS Inspection and configure the HTTPS Inspection rules. 5. Install the Access Control policy on the R80.40 Security Gateway. Note: If one of the ICAP configuration parameters is not configured correctly, SmartConsole shows an error with the name of the applicable parameter. | R80.20 |
> | PMTR-13035 | When you perform a clean install of an R80.x on top of an existing previous version, the following error might appear after the keyboard layout selection screen: *Warning: /dev/sda contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has a GPT table. However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should. Perhaps it was corrupted - possibly by a program that doesn't understand GPT partition tables. Or perhaps you deleted the GPT table, and are now using an msdos partition table. Is this a GPT partition table?* In such case, select "*Yes*" several times to continue with the installation. | R80.20 |

Connections involving the Data Center Objects that were included in previous policy installations on the Security Gateway are re-matched. | R80.20 |
> | CloudGuard Controller - Security Policy |||
> | VSECC-875 | * Data Center Objects in a Network Group are only supported in Access Control policy. * A policy that contains a Network Group with Data Center Objects can be installed only on Security Gateways R80.10 and higher. | R80.40 |
> | VSECC-1060 | Data Center Objects are not supported in NAT policy and HTTPS policy. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1066 | Policy Verification for overlapping, hiding or contradicting rules that include Data Center Objects is not supported. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1063 | CloudGuard Objects (Data Center Servers and Data Center Objects) are not supported in Global Domain. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1062 | Data Center Objects are not supported in Threat Prevention Exceptions that are installed on R77.20 and R77.30 Security Gateways (R80.x SmartConsole -\> SECURITY POLICIES App -\> Threat Prevention section -\> Exceptions). | R80.20 |
> | CloudGuard Controller - CloudGuard Objects Naming |||
> | VSECC-1064 | * Non-ASCII characters (non-English languages) in 'Data Center Server' properties (i.e., user, password and shared secret fields) are not supported. (If an object name contains one of the above characters, enforcement will not work.) * If Data Center Object's name includes Non-ASCII characters (non-English languages), enforcement will work, but its name might not be displayed properly in Security Logs and Events. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1065 | If Data Center Object name contains the following characters in its name: * "{" - opening curly bracket * "}" - closing curly bracket * "\[" - opening square bracket * "\]" - closing square bracket * "\<" - less than * "\>" - greater than Then, the Data Center Object name will appear in SmartLog with "_", instead of of each of the above characters. For example: *{Name1}* will appear as *_Name1_* | R80.20 |
> | CloudGuard Controller Server |||
> | VSECC-1067 | A policy that contains Data Center Objects is not enforced immediately after the policy installation. It takes time for the CloudGuard Controller to update the Security Gateway. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1068 | In a Multi-Domain Security Management Server environment, VSX Gateway / VSX Cluster and all Virtual Systems that enforce a policy with Data Center Objects, must reside on the same Domain Management Server. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1069 | For MDS HA managing a VSX gateway, a domain server must be deployed on all MDS servers that manage the VSX gateway installed with imported Data Center Objects. Note: This instruction applies to the VSX object. This is not mandatory for the virtual systems. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1070 | VS Cluster first policy installation should not include Data Center Objects. **Note:** If this cannot be achieved, a full-sync must be run on the cluster by running the following on the standby member: 1. *fw ctl setsync off* 2. *fw ctl setsync start* | R80.20 |
> | CloudGuard Controller Enforcement |||
> | VSECC-1071 | If a Security Gateway works with CloudGuard Controller and other Identity Sources, there must not be IP addresses belonging to Data Center Objects also associated with Machines in other Identity Sources. Such overlapping can result in disassociation of the IP addresses from either the Data Center Object, or Access Roles with such Machines, and improper Security Policy enforcement. | R80.20 |
> | CloudGuard Controller Monitoring |||
> | VSECC-422 | After executing these commands, reboot, *cprestart* , and *cloudguard off* , Data Centers that have no imported objects, will not automatically show in the Data Center table. To see the Data Centers in the table, open each Data Center individually in SmartConsole. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1072 | Data Centers that have no imported objects, will not appear in the Data Center table, after the *cloudguard off* command is run. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-346 | Problems in Data Center will not always change the status of the Security Management server in SmartConsole. * **To resolve**: Open the Device \& License information window to see the real status and update the status in SmartConsole. | R80.20 |
> | CloudGuard Controller - Nuage Networks |||
> | VSECC-1073 | Virtual IPs and Floating IPs are currently not supported. | R80.20 |
> | CloudGuard Controller - VMware NSX and vCenter |||
> | VSECC-1075 | VMware NSX Object - IP Set Objects with ranges or CIDR block notations are not supported. IP Set Objects representing one, or more, individual IP address/es are supported. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1076 | Official VMware Tools must be installed on a VM in order for CloudGuard Controller to successfully pool IP addresses. | R80.20 |
> | CloudGuard Controller - Cisco APIC |||
> | VSECC-1084 | CloudGuard for Cisco ACI controller IP address mapping and updates are based on ACI fabric IP learning capabilities, which requires enabling of unicast routing on the Bridge Domain containing the EPG. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1085 | Cisco APIC versions lower than 2.1: The Cisco ACI fabric does not age out individual endpoint IP address mappings, as long as one of the IP addresses responds to keep-alive ARP Requests from the fabric. As a result, these stale IP addresses will also be learned by the CloudGuard Controller. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1086 | Supported fabric size: The total amount of all the following objects must not exceed 100,000: * Tenants * Application Profiles * EPGs * IP addresses | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1087 | APIC HTTP URLs, which redirect to HTTPS, are not supported. Use either HTTPS URLs directly, or HTTP without redirection. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1088 | Mixing both HTTP and HTTPS APIC URLs in the connection properties is not supported. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1089 | When multiple APIC URLs are specified, the connectivity test will succeed, as long as one of the URLs connects. There is no requirement for initial verification for all the URLs. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1090 | On failure to connect to all the given APIC URLs, the returned error message is for the first unsuccessful URL. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1091 | Changes to privileges of the APIC user that was used to create the Data Center Object, are not reflected during an active login session. For example, if a new security domain is added to the user, which allows him to see a new tenant, this will not be visible to the APIC scanner. * **To resolve**: Run the *vsec_controller_stop* command on the CloudGuard Controller to restart the CloudGuard Controller services and force a new login. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1092 | If an object imported from Cisco APIC is deleted on the APIC, and then created again, the object must be re-imported into Check Point Policy. Enforcement will work properly once the object has been recreated in APIC, however the re-import is required to maintain updates for the object in the Security Management Server. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1093 | Only the following TLS cipher suites are supported for APIC HTTPS connectivity: |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | * TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA * TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA * TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 * TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA * TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256 * TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA * TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA * TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 * TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA * TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256 * TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA * TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA * TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 * TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA * TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384 * TLS_ECDH_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA * TLS_ECDH_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA * TLS_ECDH_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 | * TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 * TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA * TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384 * TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA * TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA * TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 * TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA * TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384 * TLS_EMPTY_RENEGOTIATION_INFO_SCSV * TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA * TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA * TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 * TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA * TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256 * TLS_ECDH_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA * TLS_ECDH_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384 * TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA * TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA | | R80.20 |
> | CloudGuard Controller - Cisco ISE |||
> | VSECC-1094 | Supports up to 10 concurrent connections. This may cause intermittent failures to refresh IP information in an MDM environment where many domains use the ISE controller. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1095 | Filtering IP-to-SGT mappings by SG name uses a wildcard ('\*SG_NAME\*') search, so incorrect IPs may be returned, in case two SGs have overlapping names (one is contained in the other). | R80.20 |
> | CloudGuard Controller - Public Cloud: Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform |||
> | PMTR-50503 | Multi-Queue does not work on StandAlone deployment in CloudGuard IaaS for Azure or AWS, if it is deployed with a Management image | R80.40 |
> | VSECC-1096 | Logs for rules with Subnets, AWS Security Groups, Microsoft Azure Network Security Groups or VMware NSX Security Groups will contain only the IP address, and will not contain the instance name. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1097 | IPv6 information is not imported for Data Center Objects in Public Cloud. CloudGuard Gateways in Public Cloud **do not** support IPv6. | R80.20 |
> | VSECC-1098 | Data Center Tags: * Tags keys and values longer than 100 characters will be truncated to the first 100 characters and "..." will be padded to the end of the tag. * In Microsoft Azure, Tag keys are case-insensitive, whereas Tag values are case-sensitive. **In CloudGuard Controller, both Tag key and Tag value will be treated as case-sensitive.** Meaning, the same key/value in different cases will be shown on 2 separate lines in SmartConsole. | R80.20 |
