Hi,

 

 

This forum is geared towards 9.x iRule related questions. I believe there might be plans for adding a 9.x general support forum.

 

 

For now, I'd suggest you review the materials available on AskF5 .com or www.f5.com about deploying BIG-IP with Checkpoint firewalls. Try searching for "checkpoint" or "deployment guide firewall".

 

 

Much of the documentation I could find was for BIG-IP 4.x, but I think the concepts should be similar for 9.x.

 

 

If you want additional help from F5, you can contact an F5 salesperson who can probably put you in contact with the appropriate technical person Click here.

 

 

For non-F5 related leads, you might post to some of the load balancing mailing lists like vegan.net.

 

 

Hope this gets you started...
