Release 8
Release Date: December 2021 Welcome to December 2021 Safire version 2.5.0 release. There are a number of updates in this version. Some of the key highlights include:
Enhancements:
Resolved Issues:
Support for Check Point NGFW is added to Safire’s firewall communicator
Check Point NGFW CLI commands for CPU and memory usage query as well as clearing the session table have been integrated into Safire’s firewall communicator. Safire is now supporting three major NGFW vendors, i.e., Palo Alto, Fortinet, and Check Point.
Increased the default duration of a test iteration from 30 seconds to 60 seconds
We have found out that some firewalls have difficulties establishing and closing connections for the malware test traffic within 3 seconds. This has resulted in an inaccurate measurement of the Malware Passed by Firewall metric by Safire.
Thus, we have decided to increase the default duration of a test iteration from 30 seconds to 60 seconds to double to amount of time for firewalls to handle Safire’s malware test traffic. This should result in a more accurate measurement of the Malware Passed by Firewall in Safire.
Fixed the wrong unit used in Packet Loss Rate table in the report
The unit in Packet Loss Rate table in Safire report was using % though the values are already changed to ppm. This inconsistency has been fixed.
Fixed the issue that prevents ports from getting back to SYNC mode when a port NO-SYNC event is detected
The issue causes ports not able to sync when they lose their connectivity (no-sync), and forces the user to reboot the chassis.
