1. IDENTIKEY Appliance is delivered with two LAN Ethernet interfaces (see image above), one of which needs
to be connected using an appropriate network cable to the network’s hub or switch.
2. Power up IDENTIKEY Appliance by connecting the appliance via the power cable to a supply. (The AG-7XXX
models have two power units, each with a separate power cable. These power cables need to be con-
nected to separate power circuits. The second (redundant) supply provides backup in case the fuse for the
supplying power circuit fails.)
3. The two lights on the front of IDENTIKEY Appliance indicate that the device is connected and operational
(see image below).
Check if the lights are on. If they are not, check the following:
n
The network cable is in good working order
n
The network cable is correctly plugged into one of the LAN Ethernet interfaces
n
The network cable is correctly plugged in to your network hub or switch

4.3. Connecting to your Network
There are two ways to change the IDENTIKEY Appliance IP address to an address within your network:
n
using the Rescue Tool
n
temporarily isolating a client workstation from the network and linking it to IDENTIKEY Appliance. This
involves changing a client workstation IP address to within the specified IP address range for IDENTIKEY
Appliance, for which we provide instructions here.
IDENTIKEY Appliance is delivered with the following standard configuration on the LAN Ethernet interface:
Network IP address/ Netmask 192.168.0.1/24
To access the system, a workstation needs to be temporarily configured with the same TCP/IP settings as
IDENTIKEY Appliance.
