Explanation

Check Point R80+ introduced a session-based management model. All changes made in SmartConsole are automatically saved as part of the administrator's active session on the Management Server - not just locally on the client machine. If connectivity is lost, those in-progress (unpublished) changes are preserved server-side in Tom's session. When Tom reconnects with SmartConsole, he can resume exactly where he left off without losing any work. Changes are only committed to the policy database when explicitly Published. This session model is one of the key improvements in R80 over earlier versions, enabling concurrent administration and resilience to connectivity interruptions.
