• (2) 10 GbE Optical SFPs
• Power adapter and AC power cord
• The XstreamCORE 8100T
• Record the serial number, default username, and default
password located on the bottom of the unit:
S/N: __________________________________
Default Username: ______________________
Default Password: _______________________
The username and password are needed to access SSH
and SFTP services via the Ethernet ports.
Install the XstreamCORE
Place the XstreamCORE 8100T on a stable flat surface.
If installing into a rack tray, install the XstreamCORE
assembly horizontally within the rack so it does not
reduce the air flow within the rack.
Connect the host computer by connecting the cable to
Ethernet data port 1 or 2.
Connect SAS target devices with the appropriate mini-
SAS HD cable.
Power up the target devices.
Connect the Ethernet data ports to your network.
Connect the power adapter to the XstreamCORE and to
the proper AC source outlet.
Wait for the XstreamCORE Ready LED to light, indicating
that the XstreamCORE has completed its power-on self-
test sequence
The XstreamCORE 8100T will power on
automatically and begin booting when connected to power.
The power source must be connected to a
protective earth ground and comply with local electrical codes.
Improper grounding may result in an electrical shock or
damage to the unit. Failure to do so may cause injury or
damage the unit. Also, be aware that this unit is powered on
once a power source is connected. If you are using a rack, be
careful not to exceed the power capabilities of the rack.
Making an SSH connection
Start an SSH client.
There is more than one way to connect to the
XstreamCORE using an SSH client. Your SSH client may operate
differently than in the following instructions.
In your SSH client, connect to the XstreamCORE. As an
example, using OpenSSH, the connection would be made
with the following command where username is the

address of the XstreamCORE.
ssh username@x.x.x.x
Enter your password.
To quit an SSH session, type exitConnect the Ethernet data
ports to your network.
Connect to SSH using the default IP addresses
By default, the XstreamCORE 8100T is configured to use a
static IP address. These addresses can be connected to using
SSH and the default credentials. It is recommended to use the
management port for this (MP1).
• 1GbE Management port: 192.168.0.1/24
• 10GbE Data port 1: 10.0.0.1/8
• 10GbE Data port 2: 172.16.0.1/12
Begin initial configuration
The SSH login prompt will ask the user for the username
the password.
Type in the user name and password.
The ATTO CLI splash screen appears. Continue to Map
Device.
The default user name and password values can be
found on the bottom of the unit. The user name and the
password are case sensitive.
Security Keypairs
Keys and PEM file
The XstreamCORE controller uses a keypair that is provided to
devices on a network to authenticate. The SSH and SFTP
servers in the controller expects to have access to a PEM
(Privacy Enhanced Mail) file containing the keypair (public
and its associated private key) necessary to provide access.
The keypair PEM file is generated by the controller.
The private key is only seen by the controller. Only
the signature of the private key is displayed to the user and
external entities.
Keypair regeneration
The PEM file containing the keypair is regenerated by the
controller if prompted by the user. Since it is the controller
that generates the keypair a client services (SSH and SFTP)
may report the signature as changed if they use a "known
passwords, and x.x.x.x is the IP
