Why each option

Central Licenses in Check Point can be installed directly on a Security Gateway using the CPLIC command-line tool, making option D the correct true statement.

ATrue, CLI is the prefer method for Licensing

CLI is not the preferred method for licensing in Check Point environments - SmartUpdate or SmartLicense on the Security Management Server is the standard recommended approach for Central License distribution.

BFalse, Central License are handled via Security Management Server

It is factually incorrect to say Central Licenses cannot be installed on a Security Gateway, since the CPLIC tool specifically supports this operation.

CFalse, Central License are installed via Gaia on Security Gateways

Central Licenses are not installed via the Gaia web portal on Security Gateways; the correct CLI tool for direct gateway installation is the CPLIC command, not Gaia's management interface.

DTrue, Central License can be installed with CPLIC command on a Security GatewayCorrect

The CPLIC command-line utility is a fully supported method for installing a Central License directly on a Check Point Security Gateway. A Central License is anchored to the Management Server IP address and can be distributed to gateways; CPLIC provides the CLI mechanism to apply that license locally on the gateway without requiring the Gaia portal.
