This is because the default security policy is a 'drop everything'
rule.

This allows you to connect using Voyager, but does not override the
security policy.

Before restarting the box, you need to go into Voyager and stop
Checkpoint
from starting automatically.

If you have installed FW-1 4.1 (not SP-1 or SP-2), then the default
policy
allows ICMP. The easiest way to get access back to the machine is to
define
a policy in the policy editor (which allows http and telnet access
from your
management machine), connect to the Nokia's console and log in as
admin,
run <fw unload all.all>, then install the new policy from your
management 
console.
