Limitation of 251 Inline Layers

Problem

Policy push fails with the following error: Policy installation failed on gateway. If the problem persists contact Check Point support (Error code: 2000232)

Cause

The user has configured too many policy layers in the rulebase (a layer is either an Ordered layer or an Inline Layer).

The Security Gateway has a limitation of 251 layers (in total there are 256, while 5 are reserved).

Solution

Verify that the number of layers is not exceeding 251.

mgmt_cli show access-layers limit 500 -s id.txt --format json | jq '."access-layers"[].name'

Count Access Layers

mgmt_cli show access-layers limit 500 --format json
