Explanation

cvpnd (Client VPN Daemon) is correct because it is the dedicated process in Check Point firewalls that handles client-based (Mobile) VPN connections - managing the encryption, decryption, and tunnel lifecycle for remote access users connecting via software clients.

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • D. vpnd - This handles site-to-site VPN tunnels, not mobile/client VPN; it's a common wrong pick because it sounds most generic.
  • C. fwk - This is the firewall kernel module, responsible for packet inspection and policy enforcement, not VPN tunneling.
  • B. vpnk - Not a standard Check Point daemon name; it is a fabricated distractor designed to mislead.

Memory tip: The "c" in cvpnd stands for "Client" - so cvpnd = Client VPN Daemon = Mobile users connecting remotely. Think: "C is for Cell phone (mobile)." Whenever you see a mobile/remote access VPN question, the "c" prefix is your signal.
