I found an FAQ that says the SSL Extender will not work if you use SCV, and we use it extensively. Maybe the next release of VPN-1 will allow more granularity on whether SCV is enforced, such as allowing multiple remote access communities and enforcing SCV by community instead of globally.

Both are now available from the Check Point download site. From a presentation I saw on the SSL Extender, it looks pretty nice and is supposed to be priced the same as a SecureClient license although it seems to lack the client-side firewall. Oddly, neither the license agreement nor the release notes say how it's priced at all. Or at least not that I could find. No mention of license keys or anything, just that you have to have a valid license and are subject to a license audit.
Unfortunately, the user guide says the client must have administrator rights to install, uninstall or upgrade the SSL Extender control. Even more unfortunate, this release specifically requires R55 HFA04, which leaves those of us on a later HFA due to Edge usage out of luck for now. No Nokia packages yet either.
R55W's new web defense features do require a separate license, but all existing SmartDefense features are supposed to still be available and have been enhanced in various ways. In addition, peer-to-peer protection now works regardless of the port the P2P application is trying to use. Unfortunately, Floodgate is not supported in R55W, which probably means I won't be able to use it. Neither is UserAuthority. No Nokia packages yet.
