Why each option
Check Point R80 management plug-ins are packages installed on the Security Management Server that extend its capabilities with new features without requiring a full upgrade.
Management plug-ins are installed on the Security Management Server, not on the Security Gateway - installing them on a gateway is incorrect and not supported.
Installing a management plug-in does not require taking a Snapshot - it is a standard package import and installation process, unlike a full system upgrade which may recommend a Snapshot.
A management plug-in is installed on the Security Management Server and integrates with it to deliver new management features such as support for new gateway types or product extensions. Plug-ins operate at the management layer, extending SmartConsole and server functionality, and do not require special licensing beyond the existing entitlements or a gateway-side installation.
Management plug-ins provide full central management capabilities under existing licensing without any requirement for additional or special licenses applied to specific gateways.
