On the PingFederate [**Downloads**](https://www.pingidentity.com/en/resources/downloads/pingfederate/previous-releases.html) page, download PingFederate 12.2 or later. 1. [Install PingFederate](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/installing_and_uninstalling_pingfederate/pf_installing_uninstalling_pf.html). 2. If you plan to use the one-time authentication app, install the client-initiated backchannel authentication (CIBA) *(tooltip: \
\

An extension to OpenID Connect defining a new OAuth grant type where user consent can be requested and granted through an out-of-band authentication flow. CIBA uses direct relying party to OpenID provider communication without redirects through the user's browser.\

\
)* authenticator plugin. 1. Copy the plugin corresponding to your PingFederate version from the `/plugins/deploy` directory into the `/server/default/deploy` directory: * PingFederate 13.0 or earlier: Copy `pf.plugins.ciba-auth-plugin-example-pre-13.1.jar`. * PingFederate 13.1 or later: Copy `pf.plugins.ciba-auth-plugin-example.jar`. 2. Copy the contents of the `/plugins/conf` directory into the `/server/default/conf` directory. | | | | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | If you want to use an authenticator other than CIBA, you must configure it manually in PingFederate before configuring the one-time authentication app. | 3. Perform [first-time setup](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/getting_started_with_pingfederate/pf_setting_up_pf.html) in PingFederate. 4. On the PingAccess [**Downloads**](https://www.pingidentity.com/en/resources/downloads/pingaccess.html) page, download PingAccess 8.2 or later. 1. [Install](../installing_and_uninstalling_pingaccess/pa_installing_and_uninstalling_pa.html) PingAccess. 2. Perform [first-time setup](../installing_and_uninstalling_pingaccess/pa_accessing_the_admin_console.html) in PingAccess. 5. On the **Add-ons** tab of the PingAccess [**Downloads**](https://www.pingidentity.com/en/resources/downloads/pingaccess.html) page, download the PingAccess QuickStart bundle. Extract the files. 6. Change to the QuickStart directory and run the `quickstart-server-.jar` file. ``` java -jar quickstart-server-6.2.0.0.jar ``` You can use the `--server.port=` argument to specify a port other than the default of 8443. ``` java -jar quickstart-server-6.2.0.0.jar --server.port=8444 ``` ## Next steps [Connecting the QuickStart utility to PingAccess and PingFederate](pa_connecting_the_quickstart_utility_to_pa_and_pf.html)
