When working outside the Weizmann network, you may need to access certain resources that are typically restricted. The Checkpoint mobile access feature allows you to connect to your work resources securely and remotely. In this article, we will guide you through the process of setting up and using Checkpoint mobile access from outside the Weizmann network.

* Follow the installation prompts and agree to the License Agreement.

* In the Destination Folder window, click Install.

Step 3: Allow App Changes

During the installation process, you may be prompted to allow the app to make changes to your system. Click Yes to proceed with the installation.

Step 4: Uninstall Previous Version (Optional)

If you are running the installer from outside the Weizmann campus, you might see additional windows prompting you to uninstall the previous version of Checkpoint VPN client. To do this:

* In the list of installed programs, right-click the Check Point VPN and click Uninstall.

* In the Control Panel window, click on Programs and Features.

Step 5: Install Latest Version

Once the installation is complete, you can proceed with installing the latest version of Checkpoint VPN client. To do this:
