Based on the image provided by the user, we can infer that rule 1 and object webserver are locked by another administrator. This is because they have red lock icons next to them, which indicate that they are being edited by another administrator in another session. The lock icons prevent other administrators from modifying these objects until the changes are published or discarded by the original administrator. The lock icons also show the name of the administrator who locked the objects when hovered over with the mouse cursor.

The other options are incorrect because:

• Rule 7 was not created by the ‘admin’ administrator in the current session, but by another administrator in another session. This is because it has a blue lock icon next to it, which indicates that it was added by another administrator in another session. The blue lock icon prevents other administrators from deleting this rule until the changes are published or discarded by the original administrator.
• 8 changes have not been made by administrators since the last policy installation, but in the current session by the ‘admin’ administrator. This is because there is a yellow number 8 next to the Install Policy button, which indicates that there are 8 unpublished changes in the current session by the ‘admin’ administrator. These changes will be published or discarded when the ‘admin’ administrator clicks on Publish or Discard buttons.
• The rules 1, 5 and 6 can be edited by the ‘admin’ administrator, but only after unlocking them from another administrator who locked them in another session. This is because they have red lock icons next to them, which indicate that they are being edited by another administrator in another session. The ‘admin’ administrator can unlock these rules by right-clicking on them and selecting Unlock from the menu. However, this will discard the changes made by the original administrator who locked them.

While using the Gaia CLI, the correct command to publish changes to the management server is mgmt publish. This command publishes all changes made by all administrators since the last publish operation. The json publish command is not valid in Gaia CLI. The mgmt_cli commit command is used to publish changes made by a specific administrator session. The commit command is used to save configuration changes in Gaia CLI. References: Publishing Changes

 cp.macro is an electronically signed file used by Check Point to translate the features in the license into a code. It is located in the $FWDIR/conf directory on the Security Management Server. The cp.macro file contains a list of features and their corresponding codes, which are used to generate the license file (.lic) based on the contract file (.xml). The license file (.lic) is then installed on the Security Gateway or Security Management Server to activate the licensed features.

The cpprod_util command is a utility that provides information about the installed Check Point products and their versions. The cpprod_util MgmtIsPrimary option checks if the Security Management Server is installed as a primary or a secondary server in a High Availability cluster2. If the server is primary, the command returns “yes”. If the server is secondary, the command returns “no”. Therefore, Bob can use this command to verify the provisioning of the secondary Security Management Server.
