Anti-Spoofing is typically set up on which object type?

The correct answer is A. Security Gateway. Anti-spoofing is a feature configured on the Security Gateway object in Check Point, where interface topology is defined to detect and block forged source IP addresses.

Why each option

Anti-spoofing is a feature configured on the Security Gateway object in Check Point, where interface topology is defined to detect and block forged source IP addresses.

ASecurity GatewayCorrect

Anti-spoofing is configured directly on the Security Gateway object in Check Point SmartConsole. Each gateway interface has a topology definition that specifies which networks are valid sources for that interface, allowing the gateway to drop packets arriving from unexpected directions. This enforcement must live on the gateway because it operates at the traffic inspection layer.

BHost

Host objects represent individual endpoints and have no interface topology settings required to enforce anti-spoofing.

CSecurity Management object

The Security Management object controls policy distribution but does not inspect or enforce traffic-level protections like anti-spoofing.

DNetwork

Network objects define address ranges for use in policy rules but cannot independently enforce per-interface spoofing checks.
