During which step in the installation process is it necessary to note the fingerprint for first-time
verification?
A.
When configuring the Gateway in the WebUI
B. When configuring the Security Management Server using cpconfig
C.
When establishing SIC between the Security Management Server and the Gateway
D.
When configuring the Security Gateway object in SmartDashboard
B)
A is correct, fingerprints only noted when installing GW using webUI first time.
Actually none:
the first time the SmartConsole is used to connect to the Security Management server, the administrator must manually authenticate the Security Management server using its Fingerprint.
B
B is the correct answer see below from lab
cpconfig

@erik The reason that @chuks is correct is because you would need to note the fingerprint from the CLI at setup so that you actually have it when you go to the Smart Console. That verifies that you are connected to the correct machine.
Here B is the correct answer. But the actual answer is ‘During the installation of Management Server’ . That is when the fingerprint is first shown.
