QUICK START GUIDE
1. Connect to Safire
Managing Safire is done via two RJ-45 ports on the front of the tester. The Mgmt port has a configurable
static IP address for connecting to the tester from a laptop or stationary PC at a local or remote location.
Safire comes pre-configured with the following IP address on the Mgmt port:
•Address = 192.168.1.190
•Subnet = 255.255.255.0
•Gateway = 192.168.1.1
You need a direct connection from you PC to configure Safire for the proper IP address, subnet, and
gateway. Make sure your PC port is configured statically to an IP address in the 192.168.1.XXX range.
Insert the required transceivers into their test-port cages. Remember to always use the small plugs to
prevent dust entering optical transceivers when no cable is attached.
Connecting the power cable should cause Safire to power up automatically. If it doesn’t, press the power
button on the front panel. The chassis takes 2-3 minutes to start up.
When the chassis is running, the front panel LEDs on the
test module start flashing. They stop flashing when the
first connection is made.
Connect the Mgmt port on the chassis front panel to the
port on your PC.
Open https://192.168.1.190 in your web browser.
Login using these credentials:
•Username: admin
•Password: admin

2. Change Chassis IP Address
Once you are logged in, you can change the tester’s name, description, and management interface IP
address in Settings > System. You can also create users with different levels of authorizations in Settings >
IAM.
IMPORTANT - If you lose IP network connectivity while modifying these settings, please perform the
recovery actions outlined below. If this does not work, please contact support@xenanetworks.com for
assistance.
•Go to Settings > System > Management Interface > Properties
and enter the new IP address, subnet mask, and gateway
•Click SAVE
•Wait for Safire to automatically redirect your web browser to the
new URL.
•If failed, restart the chassis by clicking the Reboot button, or by
manually powering the chassis off and on.
•When the chassis comes back online it will have the new IP
address
•Open https://<new IP address> in your web browser

3. Recover Chassis IP Address
If you forget Safire’s IP address, you need another way to get in touch with it. This is done by making a
direct connection from your PC to the Ext port, which is next the Mgmt port.
The Ext port is pre-configured with the following IP setup:
•Address: 172.16.255.210
•Subnet: 255.255.255.0
•Gateway: none
You must configure your PC port statically to an IP address in the 172.16.255.XXX range, and then you will
be able to ping the chassis again.
Now, open https:// 172.16.255.210 in your web browser.
Under Settings > System > Management Interface > Properties, you can see which IP address is configured
for the Mgmt port, and you can change it if necessary. Changes to the IP address of the Mgmt port take
effect after rebooting the chassis.
Note that the IP configuration of the Ext port cannot be changed, and that you should not configure the
Mgmt port to use this subnet.

4. Recover Admin Password
Safire lets you create multiple admin account on the chassis. Each admin account has the same
authorization level. Thus, you can always create a backup admin account if you forget the login password of
the usual admin account. But if you have lost passwords for the admin accounts, please contact
support@xenanetworks.com.

SAFIRE USER MANUAL
Connect Safire Tester to Firewall
Safire has two color-coded test ports. These colors are below the physical test port: one is blue, and the
other is gray.
A firewall usually has many ports. Choose two ports on your firewall and use cables to connect them to
Safire’s test ports. For convenience, let’s call the firewall port that is connected to the blue test port the
“blue port”, and the other the “gray port”.
Optionally, make sure Safire’s management port is connected to firewall’s management interface through
your LAN network. This is because Safire uses the management port to clear firewall’s session table as well
as query firewall’s CPU usage.

Navigate with Dashboard
Dashboard has three sections, Testing, Test Progress, and Analysis.
In Testing, you can create test cases, traffic profiles, and firewalls under test. The number in Testing shows
the number of test cases you have on the chassis.
In Analysis, you can download report and analyze test results for various use cases. The number in Analysis
shows the number of test reports you have on the chassis.
Test Progress quickly direct you to the ongoing test. The percentage number in Test Progress shows the
progress of the ongoing test.
For quick navigation between different pages, use the navigation side bar on the right.
