Hi, I've bought nokia ip51 with checkpoint fw-1.
I've also bought 50 clients license and I've registered it through checkpoint's web site. Now I'm experiencing some problems during the installation of the management server and the GUI applications because after the installation I get the error message "no license for user interface".
I've already tried the solution suggested by many faqs but it doesn't work.(start and stop firewall service)
I've checked the parameters of the license logging on my account on Checkpoint's web site and the ip configuration is:

Module IP: 80.16.30.162
Management IP: 80.16.30.162

The ip address shown above is the external interface of the nokia ip 51 and I think it should be right.
But what is the management ip?
Is it the internal ip address of the management server or something else?
How can I solve this problem if the management ip is wrong?
Thank you in advance.

First off, where are you attempting to connect to your remote console from ? If you are connecting from your management console to a remote station then the external IP would be correct. However, if you are on the same network then obviously you need to access via the internal IP. You also need to verify that you performed the fw putkey command so that the management console and station are aware of each other. Check your man pages for using the putkey command correctly. If all else fails on this then re-generate your fw license using the internal IP of the firewall and the fw putlic -k.
