# Installing and configuring QuickStart components

Install the QuickStart utility along with PingAccess and PingFederate.

## Steps

1. [Download PingFederate 10.3 or later.](https://www.pingidentity.com/en/resources/downloads/pingfederate/previous-releases.html)

2. Install PingFederate as shown in [Installing and uninstalling PingFederate](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/installing_and_uninstalling_pingfederate/pf_installing_pf.html).

3. **Optional:** If you plan to use the one-time authentication app, install the client-initiated backchannel authentication (CIBA) *(tooltip: \<div class="paragraph">
   \<p>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.\</p>
   \</div>)* authenticator plugin.

   1. Copy the contents of the `<Quickstart Home>/plugins/deploy` directory into the `<PingFederate Home>/server/default/deploy` directory.

   2. Copy the contents of the `<Quickstart Home>/plugins/conf` directory into the `<PingFederate Home>/server/default/conf` directory.

      | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
      |   | If you want to use an authenticator other than the CIBA authenticator, you must manually configure it in PingFederate before configuring the one-time authentication app. |

4. Perform the first-time configuration

5. [Download PingAccess 6.0 or later.](https://www.pingidentity.com/en/resources/downloads/pingaccess.html)

6. [Install PingAccess](../installing_and_uninstalling_pingaccess/pa_installing_and_uninstalling_pa.html) and perform the first-time configuration.

7. [Download](https://www.pingidentity.com/en/resources/downloads/pingaccess.html) and extract the PingAccess QuickStart bundle.

8. Change to the QuickStart directory and run the `quickstart-server-<version>.jar` file.

   ```
   java -jar quickstart-server-6.0.0.0.jar
   ```

   You can use the `--server.port=<port>` argument to specify a port other than the default of 8443.

   ```
   java -jar quickstart-server-6.0.0.0.jar --server.port=8444
   ```
