related materials contain trade secrets of AirTight and Customer will not disclose the Software, Documentation
or any other AirTight confidential and/or proprietary information to any third party.
6. Limited Warranties
6.1 Media. For the period of one (1) month after Delivery (as defined in Section 1.2 of the Purchase
Order) (the “Media Warranty Period”), AirTight warrants to and for the sole benefit of Customer that the media
on which the Software is provided to Customer will be free of defects in materials and workmanship.
Customer's exclusive remedy and AirTight's sole liability for breach of this warranty is that AirTight will, at its
own expense, replace any defective media returned to AirTight within the Media Warranty Period. This
warranty does not apply to damage resulting from misuse, abuse, or neglect.
6.2 Software. For the period of one (1) month after Delivery (as defined in Section 1.2 of the Purchase
Order) (the “Software Warranty Period”), AirTight warrants to and for the sole benefit of Customer that,
subject to Section 6.4, any Software, when used as permitted under this EULA and in accordance with the
instructions in the Documentation, will operate substantially without Error. Customer's exclusive remedy and
AirTight's sole liability for breach of this warranty is that AirTight will, at its own expense, use commercially
reasonable efforts to make available to Customer, by Internet download, Updates (that are intended to correct
such Errors) that AirTight makes generally available, for Errors reported to AirTight during the Software
Warranty Period. Any Error correction provided to Customer will not extend the original Software Warranty
Period.
6.3 Hardware. For the period of one (1) month after Delivery (as defined in Section 1.2 of the Purchase
Order) (the “Hardware Warranty Period”), AirTight warrants to and for the sole benefit of Customer that,
subject to Section 6.4, any Hardware sold to Customer will be free of substantial defects in materials and
workmanship. As Customer's exclusive remedy and AirTight's sole liability for breach of this warranty,
AirTight will, at its election, repair or replace any defective Hardware returned to AirTight (in accordance with
Section 6.5) within the Hardware Warranty Period. If AirTight is unable to repair or replace such Hardware,
then it will accept a return of such Hardware (in accordance with Section 6.5) and refund to Customer the price
paid by Customer for the Hardware. Any remedy provided under this Section 6.3 will not extend the original
Hardware Warranty Period.
6.4 Exclusions. AirTight will have no obligation under this EULA to correct, and AirTight makes no
warranty with respect to, Errors caused by: (a) improper installation of supported Software or Hardware; (b)
changes that Customer has made to supported Software or Hardware; (c) use of the supported Software or
Hardware in a manner inconsistent with the Documentation; (d) combination of supported Software and
Hardware with hardware or software not provided by AirTight; (e) malfunction, modification or relocation of
Customer's servers; or (f) Customer's failure to make reasonable backups.
6.5 Returns Procedure. To return an item of Hardware for any reason permitted under this EULA,
Customer must notify AirTight in writing or by fax of its proposed return, and request a tracking number.
AirTight will issue tracking numbers in accordance with its then-current standard procedures. Within ten (10)
days of receipt of the tracking number, Customer will return the relevant Hardware to AirTight (a) in
accordance with AirTight's return policies, procedures and instructions; (b) freight prepaid; and (c) in its
original shipping carton with the tracking number displayed on the outside of the carton. Customer bears the

End User License Agreement
SpectraGuard Sensor Installation Guide
vi
risk of loss or damage to any returned Hardware until such Hardware is received by AirTight at its premises.
AirTight reserves the right to refuse to accept any returned Hardware that does not bear a tracking number on
the outside of the carton or which otherwise does not comply with AirTight's return policies, procedures and
instructions.
6.6 Disclaimer. Except for the express warranties in Sections 6.1, 6.2, and 6.3, AirTight hereby disclaims
all other warranties, whether express, implied or statutory, including but not limited to the implied warranties
of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, result, effort, title and non-infringement. There is
no warranty that the Software will be error free, or that the Software or Hardware will operate without
interruption or will fulfill any of Customer's particular purposes or needs.
7. Limitation of Liability
Limitation of Damages. AirTight will not be liable to Customer or any other party for any indirect, incidental,
special, consequential, exemplary or reliance damages arising out of or related to this EULA under any legal
theory, including but not limited to lost profits, lost data or business interruption, even if AirTight knows of or
should have known of the possibility of such damages. Regardless of the cause of action or the form of action,
AirTight's total cumulative liability for actual damages arising out of or related to this EULA relating to a
particular piece of Hardware or Software will not exceed the price paid for such Hardware and Software. The
limitations of this Section 7 will not apply to or otherwise limit AirTight's liability for indemnification claims
under Section 8. This Section 7 will apply even if an exclusive remedy of Customer hereunder has failed of its
essential purpose. Customer acknowledges that the prices and fees reflect the allocation of risk set forth in this
Agreement and that AirTight would not enter into this Agreement without these limitations on its liability.
8. Indemnification
8.1 AirTight's Obligation. Subject to Sections 8.2 and 8.3, AirTight will defend at its own expense any
action brought against Customer by a third party, to the extent that: (a) such action is based upon a claim that
the Hardware or Software infringes upon any U.S. copyrights or U.S. patents registered or issued as of the
Effective Date, or (b) that the negligence of AirTight personnel caused personal injury or property damage.
AirTight will pay those costs and damages finally awarded against Customer in any such action that are
specifically attributable to such claim, or those costs and damages agreed to in a monetary settlement of such
action. The foregoing obligations are conditioned on Customer: (a) notifying AirTight promptly in writing of
such action; (b) giving AirTight sole control of the defense thereof and any related settlement negotiations; and
(c) cooperating and, at AirTight's request and expense, assisting in such defense. Customer may also participate
in the defense at its own expense. This Section 8.1 states AirTight’s entire liability and Customer's sole and
exclusive remedy for any third-party claims.
8.2 Cure. If the Hardware or Software becomes, or in AirTight’s opinion is likely to become, the subject
of an infringement claim that AirTight is required to defend pursuant to Section 8.1, then AirTight may (at its
option and expense) either: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Hardware or Software; or
(b) replace or modify the Hardware or Software so that it becomes non-infringing. If neither of the foregoing
options is reasonably available, then AirTight may: (i) terminate Customer's rights hereunder to use the
Software; and (ii) refund a pro-rata portion of any price Customer paid under this EULA, based on the useful
life of the Hardware and Software upon return of same to AirTight. Solely for the purpose of calculating any
refund payable to Customer under this Section 8.2, the parties agree that the useful life of the Hardware and
Software will be deemed to be two (2) years.
8.3 Exclusions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, AirTight will have no obligation under this Section 8 or
otherwise with respect to any infringement claim based upon: (a) any use of the Hardware or Software not in
accordance with this EULA or the Documentation: (b) any use of the Hardware or Software in combination
with other products, Hardware, software, or data not provided or approved by AirTight; (c) any use of any

End User License Agreement
SpectraGuard Sensor Installation Guide
vii
Release of the Software other than the most current Release made available to Customer; or (d) any
modification of the Hardware or Software by any person other than AirTight or its authorized agents.
Customer will indemnify AirTight against all liability, damages and costs (including but not limited to
reasonable attorneys' fees) resulting from or related to such a claim.
8.4 AirTight products may be capable of operating at frequencies beyond those allowed in your region.
You must indemnify, hold harmless, and defend AirTight from and against all Legal and Statutory obligations
if you choose to operate the SpectraGuard Enterprise products beyond the allowed frequencies.
9. General
9.1 Notices. All notices, consents and approvals under this EULA (other than orders and order
acknowledgments) must be delivered in writing by courier, by facsimile or by certified or registered mail
(postage prepaid and return receipt requested) to the other party at the address set forth above, and will be
effective upon receipt or three (3) business days after being deposited in the mail as required above, whichever
occurs sooner. Either party may change its address by giving notice of the new address to the other party.
9.2 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. No party will be deemed a third-party beneficiary to this EULA.
9.3 Relationship of Parties. The parties hereto are independent contractors. Nothing in this EULA will be
deemed to create an agency, employment, partnership, fiduciary or joint venture relationship between the
parties.
9.4 Compliance with Export Control Laws. The Software will only be delivered to Customer in the
United States and may be subject to export control regulations of the United States and other countries, with
which Customer will comply.
9.5 Assignments. Customer may not assign or transfer, by operation of law, merger or otherwise, any of
its rights or delegate any of its duties under this EULA (including without limitation, its licenses with respect to
the Software) to any third party without AirTight’s prior written consent. Any attempted assignment or
transfer in violation of the foregoing will be void. AirTight may assign its rights or delegate its obligations
under this EULA.
9.6 U.S. Government End Users. The Software and any other software covered under this EULA, are
“commercial items”as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. 2.101, consisting of “commercial computer software”
and “commercial computer software documentation”as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212. Consistent
with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, all U.S. Government end users acquire the
Software and any other software and documentation covered under this EULA with only those rights set forth

action or proceeding arising from or relating to this EULA must be brought exclusively in a federal or state
court seated in Santa Clara, California, and in no other venue. Each party irrevocably consents to the personal
jurisdiction and venue in, and agrees to service of process issued by, any such court. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, AirTight reserves the right to file a suit or action in any court of competent jurisdiction as AirTight
deems necessary to protect its intellectual property and proprietary rights.
9.8 Force Majeure. Any delay in or failure of performance by either party under this EULA, other than a
failure to pay amounts when due, will not be considered a breach of this EULA and will be excused to the
extent caused by any occurrence beyond the reasonable control of such party.
9.9 Remedies. Except as provided in Sections 6, 7 and 8, the parties' rights and remedies under this EULA
are cumulative. Customer acknowledges that the Software contains valuable trade secrets and proprietary
information of AirTight, that any actual or threatened disclosure or misapplication of such Software will
constitute immediate, irreparable harm to AirTight for which monetary damages would be an inadequate
remedy, and that injunctive relief is an appropriate remedy for such breach. If any legal action is brought to

Chapter 4 Installing SpectraGuard Sensor
SpectraGuard Sensor is the probe that monitors your network and communicates with the
SpectraGuard Enterprise Server to guard your corporate network against over-the-air attacks. The
Sensor must be plugged to your corporate network to perform the above operations.
Installing and configuring the SpectraGuard Sensor on the network is automatic. This chapter
discusses two simple steps to install the SpectraGuard Sensor:
1. Connecting Power
2. Connecting to the Network
Important! To prevent abuse and intrusion by unauthorized personnel, it is extremely important to install
the SpectraGuard Sensor such that it is difficult to unplug the device from the network or from the power
outlet.
4.1 Connecting Power
SpectraGuard Sensor runs on a 5V DC connection. Use the power adapter provided to power the
SpectraGuard Sensor from a 110V˜240V 50/60 Hz AC power connection.
To connect the power to SpectraGuard Sensor, perform the following steps:
1. Plug the power cable into the DC power receptacle at the rear of the SpectraGuard Sensor.
2. Plug the other end of the power cable into an 110V˜240V 50/60 Hz AC power source.

Wait for two minutes!
Check the Status LEDs. You will see LED1 turn yellow and LED2 turn green. This means that
SpectraGuard Sensor is powered on correctly, and is waiting to be connected to the network.
4.2 Connecting to the Network
Ensure that the SpectraGuard Enterprise Server is already running on your network.
To connect SpectraGuard Sensor to the network, perform the following steps:
1. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port at the rear of the SpectraGuard
Sensor.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to an Ethernet jack that is connected to a hub
or a switch.
Recommended! Carefully choose the network segment on which the SpectraGuard Sensor is connected. The
SpectraGuard Sensor should be placed on a network segment that can communicate with the SpectraGuard
Enterprise Server via multicast.
If you are placing the SpectraGuard Sensor across a router boundary that separates it from the SpectraGuard
Enterprise Server, ensure that multicast routing is enabled for the Multicast Group Address 224.0.23.11 on
this router. This Multicast Group Address is reserved by IANA for AirTight Networks, Inc. If your system
administrator does not allow multicast on routers, you must configure SpectraGuard Sensor manually. Refer
to Chapter 5 for details.
Important! If you connect the SpectraGuard Sensor to a network segment where a DHCP Server is
running, it will automatically receive an IP address. Otherwise, you will have to configure the IP address of
the SpectraGuard Sensor manually.

Wait for two minutes!
Check the Status LEDs. If all LEDs glow green, then the SpectraGuard Sensor is operational and
connected to the SpectraGuard Enterprise Server.
The SpectraGuard Sensor is configured and ready to go. Check your SpectraGuard Enterprise
Console to ensure that this SpectraGuard Sensor has been detected.
You need not read this installation guide further.
Note: If LED1 turns yellow, it means that the automatic installation was not successful and the
SpectraGuard Sensor must be configured manually. Refer to Chapter 5 for details.
Note: If LED1 is green, then LED2, LED3, and LED4 must be solid green or blinking green. If this does not
happen, there is an error in one of the interfaces. Contact [email protected] for details.

Chapter 5 Manual Configuration of
SpectraGuard Sensor
Important! If the installation in Chapter 4 was successful, stop! You do not need to configure SpectraGuard
Sensor manually.
In this chapter you will learn how to manually configure SpectraGuard Sensor. The Sensor can be
configured in two ways:
Through the Web Interface (http)
Through the Command Line Interface (CLI)
You can choose either method to configure the SpectraGuard Sensor. The Web Interface is the
easiest way to configure the SpectraGuard Sensor. If you are comfortable using a HyperTerminal or
minicom console, you can also use the Command Line Interface method.
5.1 Introduction
You must configure and set up SpectraGuard Sensor manually if LED1 turns yellow during
automatic installation. This means that the Sensor was unable to connect to the SpectraGuard
Enterprise Server automatically. Manual configuration is required to set up the Sensor to
communicate with the SpectraGuard Enterprise Server. Manual configuration is typically required
in the following cases:
1. SpectraGuard Sensor did not get an IP address automatically from the DHCP Server.
2. SpectraGuard Sensor is placed on a network segment that is separated from SpectraGuard
Enterprise Server by a firewall. You must first open port 3851 for User Datagram Protocol
(UDP) and Transport Control Protocol (TCP) bidirectional traffic on that firewall. This
port number is assigned to AirTight Networks.
3. SpectraGuard Sensor is separated from SpectraGuard Enterprise Server by a router, a
Network Address Translation (NAT) device or a firewall that does not have multicast
enabled.
5.2 Manual Configuration of SpectraGuard Sensor
The following steps are used to configure SpectraGuard Sensor:
1. Log in
2. Change Password Settings
3. Change Network Settings
