Is the device listed on 
the Secure Access 
server?
Authentication device: Check the authentication device drop-down 
list on the Secure Access console, and verify that it contains the 
problem device's MAC address.
If the device's MAC address (as found on the serial number label on 
the control unit) is not listed, it has not been able to contact the 
server.
USB Reader: No authentication device is listed if using a USB reader.
7
Did the device receive 
an IP address?
Authentication device: If using DHCP to configure the devices, check 
the DHCP server to verify that an IP address was assigned to it (use 
the MAC address to verify).
If no IP address was assigned, either the device is not able to 
communicate with the DHCP server, or it has been configured using 
manual IP configuration.
8
Did the device receive a 
server address from 
DHCP?
Authentication device: If using DHCP to configure the devices, check 
that the DHCP server sets value 230 to the server's IP address. Verify 
that the value is the correct IP address for the server. Note that the 
Secure Access server itself should not be configured using DHCP.
If value 230 was not set or set incorrectly, the device will not be able 
to contact the server.
9
Was the IP address set 
manually?
Authentication device: If the IP address was set manually, check the 
records to determine the device's IP address, and connect to the 
device using a web browser.
If you are unable to connect to the web page at the device's IP 
address, either the device is not correctly connected, is unable to 
communicate or the IP address was recorded incorrectly. To eliminate 
the first possibility, connect the device directly to the PC using a 
crossover cable, and attempt a connection again.
Once you establish the connection, verify that the networking 
settings and the server IP address are correct.
10
Is the device 
unreachable at its IP 
address?
Authentication device: If you are unable to connect to the device at 
its IP address using a regular Ethernet cable connected to the 
Downlink port, reset the device to its factory settings.
You can do this by disconnecting power from the control unit, 
inserting the key and turning it to the “on” position, and reconnecting 
the power. After 30 seconds, remove power, remove the key, and 
connect power again.
You should now be able to connect to the device at the default IP 
address of 192.168.2.1 (Ensure that your PC's networking settings 
are correct for being able to reach that address.)
If you can now reach the device's web page, you can then either 
configure the networking information manually, or attempt the 
DHCP configuration by connecting it to the network again.
If the web page is still unreachable, the control unit may be defective.
