This section covers the following: l BreakingPoint Storm Overview l Hardware Overview l Control Center Overview BreakingPoint Storm Overview BreakingPoint Systems has developed a product that measures and hardens the resiliency of every component of your critical infrastructure against potentially crippling attacks and peak application traffic: the BreakingPoint Storm. It is a 4 RU rack-mountable, modular product that can accurately recreate a live network environment. BreakingPoint Storm consists of the chassis and the user interface called the Control Center. Both components work together to create a comprehensive and user-friendly test solution for all network devices. BreakingPoint Storm can concurrently simulate TCP sessions, application traffic, and live security attacks, and ultimately, identify 'breaking points' in your network devices. Hardware Overview BreakingPoint Storm is comprised of five modules. The following image highlights these modules with callouts: Callout 1 refers to the removable fan tray that is vertically mounted on the right-side of the chassis. – 3 –

blades, for the computer. When you initially receive BreakingPoint Storm, these modules will not contain any blades, so you will need to install the blade(s) into the chassis. For more information on installing the blades, see Installing the Blade. If you are using 10 Gb blades, you will have four fiber-optic data ports that support up to 10 Gbps. If you are using 1 Gb blades, you will have eight copper data ports that support up to 1 Gbps. If you are using 4-Port 1 GigE blades, you will have either four copper or four fiber-optic data ports that support up to 1 Gbps. The fiber-optic connections and copper connections between the ports on your device under test to the test ports on the chassis establish the transmitting and receiving interfaces for your tests. For more information on connecting your device under test to BreakingPoint Storm, see Connecting a Device Under Test to BreakingPoint Storm. Depending on the number of blades purchased for BreakingPoint Storm, your chassis may have either one or two blades. The number of tests that you can run concurrently depends on the number of available ports that BreakingPoint Storm has. For example, a single-blade BreakingPoint Storm with four available ports can only run four tests at a time. A two-blade chassis with 16 total available ports can run 16 tests simultaneously. However, to run all 16 tests concurrently, you will need to assign each available port to a different Active Group. For more information, see the BreakingPoint Storm User Guide. Callout 4 points to the computer controller, which holds the BPS management ports, target control ports, and reset button. There is an eSATA port as well. The computer controller will not be installed when you initially receive BreakingPoint Storm. For more information on installing the computer controller, see Installing the Computer Controller. The BPS management ports (serial and ethernet), located on the computer controller, allow you to connect your computer to a network and access it through an IP address. The target control ports allow you to automate testing for the device under test. The reset button restores your computer to the default factory settings. Callout 5 refers to the power tray, which contains the power supply for the computer. Front-view The following image illustrates the front of BreakingPoint Storm. Locate the corresponding callout in the following table for more information about each component. Chapter 2  Product Overview – 4 –

If you select Telnet or SSH, the DUT must be plugged into the chassis through the BPS management ethernet port. 7. Define the connection parameters for the DUT under the Connections Settings area. For more information on connection parameters, see the Connection Parameters section in the user guide for a list of valid parameter values. 8. Enable or disable any global commands from the Global Commands list. Note: All cloned DUT profiles inherit the active global commands from its parent DUT profile. For more information on commands, see the Commands section in the user guide. 9. Click Apply. Task 8: Creating a Network Neighborhood A Network Neighborhood consists of all the domains for each test interface. The domains consist of subnets, which set the range of source and destination addresses for the test traffic sent or received by the interface. For each test component, specify the domain that the component uses to obtain the source and destination addressing for its traffic. Each domain consists of a single subnet, or it can have multiple subnets depending on whether or not the domain supports VLANs. All VLAN-enabled domains have more than one subnet. Any other type of domain can only have one. Note: The computer randomly selects VLAN IDs from the Network Neighborhood. Therefore, some VLAN IDs may be used multiple times, whereas others may not be used at all. This task is broken into four parts: 1. Creating a Network Neighborhood. 2. Adding a domain to the Network Neighborhood. 3. Defining the subnet for the domain. 4. Adding additional interfaces to the Network Neighborhood (for two-blade chassis). Creating a Network Neighborhood This section describes how to create a Network Neighborhood. Chapter 3  Getting Started – 20 –

1. Click Control Center > Network Neighborhood from the BreakingPoint Control Center menu bar. 2. Click Create a new network neighborhood (‘+’) located under the Network Neighborhoods list. 3. Type a name for the Network Neighborhood in the Name box. 4. Click OK. Note: Each interface has a default domain with a reconfigured subnet. Defining a Subnet This section describes how to add a subnet to a non-VLAN tagging subnet on a non-external interface. For information on external device addressing or VLAN-enabled addressing, see the External Interface Addressing or Defining a VLAN-Enabled Subnet section in the user guide. Chapter 3  Getting Started – 21 –

1. Click Control Center > Network Neighborhood from the BreakingPoint Control Center menu bar. 2. Select a Network Neighborhood from the Network Neighborhoods list. 3. Select a test interface to modify by clicking the Interface tab. 4. Select a domain from the Domains list. 5. Click Show the create new subnet form (‘+’) located under the Subnets list. The Create new subnet dialog box appears. Note: If you are adding a subnet to an empty domain, you can skip this step. The Subnet form will already be blank and ready for you to input addressing information. 6. Select IPv4 or IPv6 addressing. 7. Click VLAN Tagging and select a VLAN tag. 8. Select Use NAT for network address translation (if applicable). 9. Type an IP address in the Network IP Address box. To assign an IPv4 address, use the format x.x.x.x, where x is a number between 0-255. To assign an IPv6 address, use the format x:x:x:x, where x is a valid hexadecimal value. 10. Type a mask for the network address in the Netmask box. For IPv6 addressing, type the prefix in the Prefix field. 11. Type a gateway address in the Gateway IP Address box. To assign an IPv4 address, use the format x.x.x.x, where x is a number between 0-255. To assign an IPv6 address, use the format x:x:x:x, where x is a valid hexadecimal value. Chapter 3  Getting Started – 22 –

13. Do one of the following: l Click Host from the Type list to use one MAC address per host. l Click Virtual Router from the Type list to use one MAC address for all hosts, and type an IP address for the virtual router in the Router IP Address box. Note: If an IPv6 router is present, the BreakingPoint device generates at least one global address. You can discover the automatically generated IPv6 address through the SSH/telnet/serial interface, by using the networkInfo command. 14. Type an ethernet address in the Ethernet Address box. Use the format xx:xx:xx:xx, where x is a valid hexadecimal value. 15. Turn on or turn off the Use Address Range option. 16. Type a range of IP addresses by using the Minimum IP Address and Maximum IP Address box. Use the format x.x.x.x, where x is a number between 0-255. Note: If Use Address Range is turned off, you only need to type an IP address in the Minimum IP Address box. The system only uses one IP address for the entire subnet. 17. Click Add Subnet. 18. Click Save Network. Adding a Test Interface By default, the computer provides you with four transmitting and receiving interfaces and one external interface (for SSL testing). So, if you have a two blade chassis, you will need to add additional interfaces to your Network Neighborhood. Each test interface in the Network Neighborhood corresponds to a data port on the chassis. When you add an interface to a Network Neigbhorhood, the computer automatically numbers the interface based on the order in which it was added. If you delete any of the interfaces, the computer automatically sequences the interfaces again. The succeeding interfaces (following the deleted interface) will be renumbered to the preceding interface’s value (for example, ‘6’ will become ‘5’). Note: There can be up to eight test interfaces in a Network Neighborhood and one external interface. To add a test interface to a Network Neighborhood, do the following: 1. Click Control Center > Network Neighborhood from the BreakingPoint Control Center menu bar. 2. Select a Network Neighborhood from the Network Neighborhoods list. 3. Click Add New Interface (‘+’).

The number of tests that you can run concurrently depends on the number of available ports that the BreakingPoint device has. For example, a single-blade BreakingPoint device with four available ports can only run four tests at a time. A two-blade chassis with sixteen total available ports can run sixteen tests simultaneously. To run all sixteen tests concurrently, however, you will need to assign each available port to a different Active Group. To run tests on the BreakingPoint device, you must make port reservations. A port reservation occurs when you click a port to reserve it under your account. No other users can run tests or system processes on that port while it is reserved under your account. When you click a port to reserve it, the computer will lock the port reservation under your account. Locking a port reservation also reserves all other ports under your account as well, however, only the ports with locked reservations can be used to run tests. Note: To run two tests concurrently, each set of blades must be assigned to a different Active Group. For more information on Active Groups, see the Active Groups section in the user guide. There are three ways to reserve a blade: l Reserving an unreserved blade. l Force reserving a reserved blade. l Simultaneously reserving or unreserving a blade. Reserving an Unreserved Blade Unreserved blades may be reserved simply by selecting the Active Group to which you would like to assign the blade, and then clicking the port that you would like to reserve. This locks the port reservation, as well as reserves all the ports on the blade under your account. Note: A lock containing the Active Group appears on all the ports on the blade. When reserving your ports, remember the order in which you reserve them. Whenever you reserve a port, the computer automatically maps that port to an interface on the chassis. For example, if you reserve ports 0 and 1, port 0 will map to interface 1 and port 1 will map to interface 2. You can use these interfaces to run tests. If an interface is not mapped to a port, you cannot use that interface to run tests. If you want to remap the ports to different interfaces, click Port Mapping, located on the Device Options screen, and manually remap the ports. Note: You can map only reserved ports to interfaces. To reserve ports on an unreserved blade, do the following: 1. Click Control Center > Device Status from the BreakingPoint Control Center menu bar. 2. Click Active Group. 3. Select the Active Group to which you would like to assign the ports. 4. Click the port(s) that you would like to reserve. Chapter 3  Getting Started – 24 –

denoting the port’s Active Group. These ports, even though they have not been manually reserved by you, are reserved under your account. Force Reserving a Blade If another user has reserved the ports on a blade, you can force reserve all the ports on that blade by clicking any of the ports. During a force reserve, the computer alerts you that the ports are reserved by another user and asks if you want to force reserve all the ports on that blade. If you force reserve the port at this point, the computer reserves all the ports on that blade under your account. Note: You cannot force reserve ports if there is a test or computer process running on any of the ports on the blade. This computer alerts you that there is a process running on that module. You should check the port notes before you force reserve the port(s) because other system users may not want you to remove their port reservations. If available, the port notes will appear as a yellow note icon located next to the port. As a best practice recommendation, you should add a port note to your reserved ports. For example, you may want to note that you will be running tests on these ports everyday between 14:00 and 16:00. This may prevent other users from removing your port reservations. To force-reserve ports, do the following: 1. Click Control Center > Device Status from the BreakingPoint Control Center menu bar. 2. Click the port(s) that you would like to reserve. Note: You can only force reserve ports that do not have tests or computer processes running on them. 3. Click Yes when the dialog window appears, asking if you would like to force reserve all the ports in the module. Note: The port(s) that you clicked will show a locked icon, denoting that this port has been reserved by you. All other ports are tagged with a blue note icon, showing the active group to which the ports belong. Simultaneously Reserving or Unreserving All Ports On A Blade When you right-click a port, you can conveniently reserve or unreserve all ports on that slot without having to individually select them. To simultaneously reserve or unreserve all ports on a blade, do the following: 1. Click Control Center > Device Status from the BreakingPoint Control Center menu bar. 2. Click the Active Group that you would like to use from the list. 3. Right-click the slot that has the ports, which you would like to reserve or unreserve. 4. Click Reserve/Unreserve all ports on this slot. Chapter 3  Getting Started – 25 –

This section covers the following: l Site Requirements l Safety Recommendations l Safety Regulations Site Requirements Site requirements must be met before any type of electrical equipment can be installed at your location. Site requirements include the following: l Rack Requirements l Ventilation Requirements l Environmental Requirements l Power Requirements l System Grounding Requirements l Fiber-Optic Connection Requirements Review the following site requirements before proceeding with the installation and configuration of BreakingPoint Storm. Rack Requirements BreakingPoint Storm should be installed in a standard 19 inch EIA rack cabinet. We do not recommend use of an equipment rack with side panels installed because of the horizontal airflow requirements of BreakingPoint Storm. If the weight of the equipment on the rack is not evenly distributed, there is a chance that the rack may tip over. Therefore, the rack needs to be properly anchored to an unmovable support system to prevent it from tipping over. Load the rack from the bottom up, filling the lower racks with the heaviest components and the higher racks with the lightest components. This stabilizes the rack by evenly distributing the weight of the equipment on the rack. The vertical spacing on the rack rails must meet the standard EIA-310C spacing requirements of 1 inch (2.54 cm). For more information on EIA-310C regulations, see Safety Regulations. – 29 –

chassis and exhausts hot air on the left. There must be at least three inches of clearance at all of the ventilation openings to ensure that the chassis is properly ventilated. Note: BreakingPoint Storm will not power up without the fan tray installed. If one or more fans on the fan tray fail to operate at full speed, the computer will shut down and the fan tray must be replaced. If this occurs, contact BreakingPoint Support for further assistance. Environmental Requirements BreakingPoint Storm must operate under the following environmental requirements: l Operating environment: 15°C to 40°C (59°F to 104°F) l Non-operating environment: -20°C to 70°C (-4°F to 158°F) l Relative Humidity: 5 to 95%, non-condensing l Altitude: No degradation up to 13,000 feet above sea level Power Requirements BreakingPoint Storm’s power requirements are 100-240 VAC, 4.5 A and 50/60 Hz. The maximum power consumption is 1,200 W. System Grounding Requirements Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can occur if electronic components are improperly handled. ESD can cause intermittent or complete computer failure. To prevent ESD from occurring, you should eliminate static generators (for example, plastic) and static conductors (for example, metal) from all areas that house electronic equipment or highly charged materials. Note: Use proper ESD protection whenever handling any parts of BreakingPoint Storm. Fiber-Optic Connection Requirements The XFP optical transceivers and fiber-optic connections are classified as Class 1 lasers. This means that exposure to the laser will not cause eye injury and are generally considered safe, however, we recommend that you do not look directly into the connectors. The XFP optical transceivers from the Accessories Kit come with protective dust covers. You should install the protective dust covers over the transceivers to protect the optical data ports whenever they are not in use. If you remove the dust covers later on, ensure to properly store them so that you can easily find them again. Note: Do not remove the XFP optical transceivers from the data ports. When these ports are not in use, keep the protective dust covers in them. Chapter 4  Site and Safety Regulations – 30 –

controller is installed in the module above the power tray. Mounting BreakingPoint Storm into an Equipment Rack The following instructions describe how to mount BreakingPoint Storm into a standard 19-inch equipment rack. If you require additional information for any other type of rack, see your rack vendor’s documentation. A rack unit (RU) is an industry-standard measurement for rack-mountable equipment. Each rack unit is equal to 1.75 inches and is comprised of three mounting holes. If you look at the rack’s mounting rails, you will notice small markers that indicate each rack unit. For BreakingPoint Storm, you will need 4 RU of rackspace. Typically, you will need to count mounting holes upward, from the first mounting hole in the range of rack units needed to install the chassis. Note: For safety purposes, we recommend that you mount BreakingPoint Storm into an equipment rack before installing the computer controller or blade(s). Additionally, to avoid injury or damaging the chassis, we recommend you to use three people to mount the chassis. Guidelines to Keep in Mind Before you mount the chassis to the equipment rack, ensure that the operating environment meets the criteria listed in the Site and Safety Regulations section. Generally, this includes the following: l Mounting the chassis in an area where air can properly circulate (at least three inches of clearance around all ventilation openings). l Ensuring that the chassis has at least three feet of clearance in the rear so you can easily access the computer’s power switch and inlet. l Engaging the rack’s stabilizers to keep it stable before mounting the chassis to the rack. l Placing the chassis in a dry and dust-free area.

multiple boxes, you may want to create an account for each box. Addressing Questions Question: How do I configure the computer to use one MAC address per host? Answer: If you edit the Network Neighborhood selected for your test, you can select 'Host' as the type for the domain. This will allot one MAC address per host. Selecting 'Virtual Router' uses one MAC address total for all traffic from that subnet. Question: Why would I want to use one MAC address for all hosts? Answer: A device has limited memory dedicated to its ARP table. If it takes too long for the ARP table to populate, the device may run out of buffer packets for that host and drop packets. So, you will want to use the 'Virtual Router' option when using more addresses than the device’s ARP table is capable of handling. Otherwise, entries are dropped before they need to be used. Question: Can NAT be used across multiple test components? Answer: No. Only one test component can use a domain that has NAT turned on. Any domain that has NAT tuned on cannot be shared between test components. Question: How many subnets can I add to a domain? Answer: The number of subnets that can be added depends on the type of subnet you are defining. Each domain can contain one non-VLAN subnet. Each additional subnet must have a VLAN ID assigned to it. So, theoretically, the limit is 4,095, because you can assign VLAN IDs from 1-4,095. Question: How do I assign one IP address per subnet? Answer: If you edit the Network Neighborhood selected for your test, you can turn off the Use Address Range option and type the single IP address that you want to use in the Minimum Range field. Question: What type of Network Address Translation (NAT) is supported? Answer: Source NAT, also known as Traditional NAT, Outbound NAT, or Unidirectional NAT. Question: Do you support Destination NAT? Answer: No. Chapter 8  Frequently Asked Questions – 46 –

Answer: Yes. You can send and receive traffic on the same interface if you assign the interface a domain that has VLAN-tagging turned on. Bandwidth Questions Question: How do I define the maximum throughput for each test interface? Answer: The maximum throughput is defined by using the Data Rate parameters. This parameter is defined per test component, and it is the upper-bound rate for each interface, which means that the interface will never send more traffic than the value specified. For the session-based components, you can define the scope of the data rate, which enables you to set the maximum data rate per interface, or set the aggregate data rate for the entire test component. Question: What is the maximum throughput for each interface? Answer: The maximum throughput is determined by the link speed of the device connected to the appliance. BreakingPoint Storm allows up to 10 Gbps on the 10 Gb blades and 1 Gbps on the 1 Gb blades. Question: How do I determine how much bandwidth each test component is using? Answer: The computer has a test status verification feature that tells you whether or not the test components have exceeded the maximum allowed bandwidth for each interface. For example, if you capture 500 Mbps of traffic on Interface 1, the corresponding Recreate test estimates that the data rate is 500 Mbps for both the transmitting and receiving interfaces. To set the data rate to be an aggregate sum for the test component, set the Data Rate Scope parameter to Limit Aggregate Throughput. Question: What is the maximum bandwidth usage for a test interface? Answer: For test components that send bidirectional traffic, such as Session Sender, Application Simulator, and Recreate, the value defined for Frame Rate Distribution sets the upper bound limits for bandwidth usage per interface. However, the aggregate sum of the traffic sent by each interface fluctuates between the data rate shared between both testing interfaces. For example, if you have a Session Sender test that uses 500 Mbps, the test never sends more than 500 Mbps from an interface, however, the sum of traffic sent by both interfaces fluctuates between 500 Mbps and 1000 Mbps. System Questions Question: What are the power requirements for BreakingPoint Storm? Answer: The following are the power requirements for BreakingPoint Storm: 100-240 VAC, 4 A at 50- 60 Hz, and a maximum power consumption of 400 Watts. Question: What is the manufacturer MAC address for the BPS Management port? Chapter 8  Frequently Asked Questions – 47 –

are required to match the application data to the IP and TCP/UDP headers? Answer: No. This functionality is currently not supported. Question: What is the maximum current available for the DUT power receptacle? Answer: 120 VAC or 8.3 A Question: Can multiple users use the computer? Answer: Yes. Multiple users can be logged on to the computer at the same time and multiple tests, Tcl scripts, and packet captures can be run simultaneously. Question: How do I restore factory settings? Answer: There are two ways to restore factory settings: you can do it through the Control Center or you can manually do it from the physical box. To restore settings through the Control Center, navigate to the Administration page. Locate the area labeled System Functions, and then click Factory Revert. To restore factory settings from the box: First, power cycle the box. After the Status LED is green, insert a pin-sized object into the Reset button. Continue to push the Reset button until the Status LED turns red. The Status LED will then turn red and alternatively flash red and green. After this process is done, the box will reboot. Configure FireStorm ONE after it finishes rebooting. Question: What is the difference between a factory revert and a previous revert? Answer: A factory revert rolls the computer back to the build that was initially installed on it (that is, the factory build) and reverts it back to its factory state. Therefore, all settings, tests, and data stored on the computer are removed. A previous revert rolls the computer back to the build that was previously installed on your computer.
