Select Firewall Access Method
Safire uses the access information entered in this panel to monitor firewall resource utilization (CPU and
memory), and clear firewall’s session table between iterations.
Safire supports two access methods: SSH
and REST. Choose which firewall access method you prefer to use.
•
If you choose SSH CLI
The port number used by SSH CLI is 22.
You don’t need to provide the port number after the IP
address. Simply enter the IP address of the firewall management port and the login credentials of
SSH. The
Test Connection
button lets you test the access method settings before Safire securely
saving it in the on-chassis database.
•
If you choose REST API
Safire uses HTTPS for REST communication with port 443 by default. Simply enter the IP address of
the firewall management port and the REST token. If your firewall uses other ports for HTTPS
access, e.g. 4443, then you need to specify the port number after the IP address, e.g.
10.20.10.50:4443. The
Test Connection
button lets you test the access method settings before
Safire securely saving it in the on-chassis database.
