The key that is created during Phase 2 of a site-to-site VPN is a symmetrical IPSec key3. This key is used to encrypt and decrypt the data that is exchanged between the VPN peers3. The symmetrical IPSec key is derived from the shared secret and the Diffie-Hellman public keys that are exchanged during Phase 13.

The statement that best describes Secure Internal Communication (SIC) is: After successful initialization, the gateway can communicate with any Check Point node that possesses a SIC certificate signed by the same ICA. SIC is a mechanism that ensures secure communication between Check Point components by using certificates that are issued by an Internal Certificate Authority (ICA)3. The other statements are not accurate descriptions of SIC.

This answer is correct because the vpn tu command is used for VPN tunnel management and shows detailed information about VPN tunnels, such as the tunnel ID, peer IP, encryption domain, and status1. This command will bring up a menu for you to choose from, such as list all IPsec SAs, delete all IPsec SAs, or delete IPsec SA for given peer1.

The other answers are not correct because they either show different information or do not exist as commands. The cat $FWDlR/conf/vpn.conf command shows the VPN configuration file, which contains the VPN domains, communities, and encryption settings2. The vpn tu tlist command does not exist, but it might be confused with the vpn tunnelutil tlist command, which shows the tunnel utilization statistics3. The cpview command shows the Check Point real-time performance monitoring tool, which displays various system and network parameters, such as CPU, memory, disk, interfaces, and VPN4.

 In hide NAT, the source IP address is translated. Hide NAT is also known as many-to-one NAT or PAT (Port Address Translation). It maps multiple private IP addresses to one public IP address by using different port numbers. Hide NAT allows outbound connections from the private network to the public network, but not inbound connections from the public network to the private network. In static NAT, the source or destination IP address is translated depending on the direction of the traffic. Static NAT is also known as one-to-one NAT or bi-directional NAT. It maps one private IP address to one public IP address and allows both outbound and inbound connections. In simple NAT, there is no translation of IP addresses. Simple NAT is also known as routing mode or transparent mode. It allows traffic to pass through the NAT device without any modification. There is no hide NAT for destination IP address translation5678 References: What Is Network Address Translation (NAT)?, Network address translation, Network Address Translation Definition, Network Address Translation (NAT)
