Full set: 75 questions
Answer options
A: -x Correct answer
B: -rn
C: -s
D: -yall
Correct Answer:
A. -x
Explanation

The cplic print -x command is used in the Check Point command-line interface to display extended, detailed information about all installed licenses. This extended output includes the license signature key, which is a unique identifier for the license string. The standard cplic print command shows only basic license information, while the -x argument provides the full details necessary for troubleshooting or verification, including the signature.

Why Incorrect

B. -rn: This is not a valid argument for the cplic command. It does not exist in the command's syntax.
C. -s: This is not a valid argument for the cplic command. It is not used to display license information.
D. -yall: This is not a valid argument for the cplic command. The correct syntax for viewing all details is -x.

Check Point R81.20 CLI Reference Guide: In the chapter covering System Level Commands, the cplic command is detailed. The cplic print [-x] syntax is specified, where -x is described as the option to "Print extended license information." This extended information includes the signature key. (See Chapter: System Level Commands, Section: cplic).

Check Point Support Center, SK ID sk33089: "How to view and add new licenses from the command line". This article details the usage of the cplic utility. It specifies using cplic print to view licenses and directs users to the CLI guide for further options like -x for detailed views. The signature is a core component of the detailed license string.
