Not exactly cause I have CPK FW-1 NG FP2 Build 52163. The logging server & 
management are separated. It seems that syslog is running on port 514udp:

$ ps -aef | grep syslog
root      7239  7231  0 Mar23 ?        00:00:01 syslog 514 all

Maybe the wording Checkpoint used on their web site.
"Prior to the release of NG FP3 HF2......." really does include ALL 
releases before FP3
