IxNetwork - 8.20 EA patch1

User Authentication required to use IxNetwork 8.20 EA patch1

Starting with version 8.10 EA, users of IxNetwork applications are required to authenticate when starting the applications' user interfaces, using an e-mail based authentication mechanism. A login window is presented when a user starts IxNetwork and the user will need to enter the registered e-mail address and the associated password. 

First time users need to create a new account, which can be done online at login.ixiacom.com; this link is available on the login window. A new account can be used only after the user verifies the e-mail address by opening the link in the verification e-mail received from  “Ixia Identity”. 

If the client machine running IxNetwork is offline, a token is required to sign in; the token is a binary file, that can be obtained by signing in at login.ixiacom.com from a computer with Internet access and downloading the Offline Authentication Token. 

Note: When signing in, or managing the account in a web browser, always confirm that you are doing so over a secure connection. Ixia does not ask for user name, password or other personal information via email.
