Why each option
Check Point Identity Awareness uses Policy Decision Point (PDP) and Policy Enforcement Point (PEP) as the two defined roles that enable identity acquisition and cross-gateway identity sharing.
In Check Point Identity Awareness, the PDP (Policy Decision Point) gateway acquires identity information from sources such as Active Directory Query or Identity Agents and is responsible for sharing that identity data with other gateways. The PEP (Policy Enforcement Point) gateway receives identity information from a PDP and enforces access control policy based on user and machine identities, enabling identity sharing across a distributed environment.
Policy Manipulation Point (PMP) is not a defined role in Check Point Identity Awareness; only PDP and PEP exist as the recognized identity sharing components.
Neither Policy Manipulation Point (PMP) nor Policy Activation Point (PAP) are valid components in the Check Point Identity Awareness architecture.
Policy Activation Point (PAP) is not a defined Check Point Identity Awareness component and does not appear in the identity sharing model.
