Install Checkpoint Gaia Virtualbox Ubuntu
Setting up Checkpoint Lab on VirtualBox
Discussions related to using VirtualBox on. I am trying to install checkpoint R77.3 however after the initial setup runs i am unable. Gaia VM Host Only.
Hey I am trying to setup the checkpoint lab as done in the CBTnuggets series by keith, but i am using VirtualBox instead of VMware. (i'll add the diagram once i reach home from work).
The diagram: http://imgur.com/a/cxmiu
How do I figure out the 'VMnets' as keith uses them to connect to the VM installations from his own windows PC?
I assign the 10 series IP to the checkpoint installation but then the VB network adapter retains its 192 range IP address, I'm not very familiar with how virtual adapters work and how to do the routing.
I then added the CP VM to GNS3 and used the cloud to add the VB adapter and gave it an addition IP in the 10 range which then worked, but how do I talk to my VB CP installations without using GNS?
Really appreciate any help! Thanks for the notes!

All binaries, and the guest additions will be included on installing from the Oracle repository. Previous versions of virtualbox may conflict and will have to be removed manually, or will automatically be removed during installation. Existing virtual machines will be kept.
There is no point to download and install a DEB package in addition.
An extension pack matchin the installed version of virtualbox will have to be manually downloaded and then installed from the virtualbox media manager
you cant have 2 versions of virtualbox at the same time; you can install virtualbox from .deb package downloaded from
and extensions from
Downloads – Oracle VM VirtualBox - look for VirtualBox Extension Pack All supported platforms link
first purge old version
apt-get purge virtualbox
then download from links above required files and install
after this you should have virtualbox+GUI+ext pack
Have exactly same issue, turns out in virtualbox-5.2 or even earlier version, you don't need virtualbox-qt anymore for a GUI.
Install Virtualbox Ubuntu 16
I still need download the Ext pack, from Virtualbox website, but it's now a plug-in, and are not OS depended anymore, so it is not necessary to be managed by Ubuntu's package manager.
