Hi

Your problem is an old one; in fact checkpoint counts ALL the hosts which
eventually go through the interfaces of the firewalled machine (you see that
by issuing the command fw lichosts). So any host that bounces on it will be
counted and if it bounces on the internal interface it will be added to the
count of protected hosts, therefore reducing the number of the licence. So
unless you separate phisically the internal interface of the nokia from the
internal network (for example interleaving a two ethernet router and making
nat on that router for the internal network to reach your nokia with 1 only
ip address) I do not know any other way. I have made it that way and it
works for me.

Regards and luck
