CheckPoint log entries are divided by semi-colons and can have … many … fields. How to quickly check the positional number of a particular field in a particular log entry? Here’s a quick AWK one-liner (in AWK the “0” element is the whole line):
$ echo '315918;1Jan2019;0:03:30;fe80::d123:3aaa:fe80:fb73;ff02::1;ipv6-icmp;;accept;;;;10.1.2.26;log;;eth1.123;inbound;VPN-1 & FireWall-1;;f-firewall001;Network;0;;;;;;;;;Implied rule;;;Neighbor Advertisement;136;0;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;' | \
awk -v RS=\; '{print NR,$0}'

awk -F\; '{ for (i=1;i<=NF;i++) {print i,$i}}'To number the field names (provided the logs are converted to TXT and gzipped):
$ zcat 2019-01-01_025249_2308.log.txt.gz | head -1 | awk -v RS=\; '{ print NR,$0}'
