ShellPoint — Check Point SSH Manager

Features

Everything a CP engineer needs

Built from the ground up for Check Point environments — not a generic SSH client with a coat of paint.

Multi-Tab SSH

Open multiple SSH sessions simultaneously. Split view for HA pairs. Reconnect and duplicate session from a right-click menu.

Quick Connect

Type user@ip:port directly in the title bar for an instant ad-hoc session — no need to save the host first.

SFTP File Manager

Integrated side-panel file manager with breadcrumb navigation, upload/download, drag & drop, progress bar, and keepalive.

2FA / RADIUS Auth

Push 2FA (Duo, Okta), OTP/Token, and standard password — configurable per host. Extended timeout for RADIUS flows.

CP Command Library

Pre-loaded with cphaprob, fw stat, fwaccel, cpview and more. Visual builders for tcpdump & fw monitor.

Host Organisation

Two-level tree: Customer → Cluster/Site → Node. Right-click to connect, open Gaia Portal, edit or delete any host.

Secure Credentials

Passwords stored in Windows Credential Manager — never in plain text on disk. OS-level encryption, always.

SK Knowledge Base

Quick links to the most common Check Point SK articles — searchable, always accessible without leaving the app.

100% Portable — No Install Required

Download, unzip, and run. No Node.js, no admin rights, no registry entries. Works from a USB drive on any Windows 10/11 x64 machine.

Quick Start

Up and running in 60 seconds
