Which of the following is NOT a CPMAD global configuration parameter, ie is specific to a
particular alert?

A.

B.
MAD_successive_alerts_mode

C.
MAD_memory

D.
MAD_clean_interval

E.
MAD_number_of_connection_attempts

F.
MAD_interval_between_connection_attempts

Explanation:

: Option B is not a global configuration parameter for CPMAD, the global configuration is changed
through “cpmad_confir.conf” file, all the other parameter are valid in this file. The
“MAD_system_mode” enables and disables CPMAD, “MAD_memory” is the amount of memory in
bytes allocated to the MAD process. “MAD_clean_interval” define the amount of time that old
attacks will be stores in MAD memory tables. “MAD_number_of_connection_attempts” define the
number of times MAD will try to reconnect either to the LEA or ELA server, and
“MAD_interval_between_connection_attempts” defines the wait period between those
reconnection attempts. See Page 408-409 of Syngress Book “Checkpoint NG – Next Generation
Security Administration”.
