D. CPMIL dump

View Answer

Answer: B

Explanation:

When troubleshooting crashes on a Security Gateway (or any Linux-based system), the file type that is typically generated and used for in-depth analysis is a core dump.

A core dump captures the memory state of a process at the time it crashed and is critical for root-cause analysis.

Other options:

A. tcpdump: A packet capture file, not a crash-related file.

C. fw monitor: A Check Point packet capture tool, but not for crash debugging.

D. CPMIL dump: Not a common or standard crash dump reference in Check Point.
