Fill in the blank; The position of an Implied rule is manipulated in the_______ window
The correct answer is C. Global Properties. Implied rules in Check Point are system-generated rules that control traffic to/from the gateway itself, and their order relative to explicit rules is configured in Global Properties. This setting determines whether they appear before, after, or between explicit rules.

Why each option
Implied rules in Check Point are system-generated rules that control traffic to/from the gateway itself, and their order relative to explicit rules is configured in Global Properties. This setting determines whether they appear before, after, or between explicit rules.
The NAT section in Global Properties controls network address translation settings, not the positioning of implied firewall rules.
The Firewall policy rulebase displays rules but does not provide a configuration window to change the positional behavior of implied rules.
In Check Point SmartConsole, the Global Properties window contains the 'Firewall' section where administrators control the position of implied rules - choosing 'First', 'Last', or 'Before Last' relative to explicit security policy rules. This centralized setting applies globally across the policy rather than being adjustable per-rule in the rulebase.
Object Explorer is used to browse and manage network, host, and service objects - it has no function related to implied rule ordering.
