  1. Active Directory Group Policy mechanism (for workstations within the organization domain).
  2. Windows registry (for workstations that are beyond the bounds of Windows domain).

Configuring AirKey Virtual Smart Card Reader via Group Policies

It is necessary to add the Indeed AirKey Enterprise policy templates into the Active Directory administration template list before starting to configure group policies. Policy template files are included into the installation package of AirKey Runtime and can be found in the \Misc\GroupPolicyTemplates folder.

The AirKey Enterprise Server policy applies to user workstations and defines the settings of connection to Indeed AirKey Enterprise server.

Not Configured or Disabled value means that connection URL is not defined. In this case, AirKey cards cannot be used on this workstation. Default value is Not configured.

Enabled
The connection parameters defined by policy are used to connect to AirKey server when using AirKey cards. Specify the link and port to connect to server in the Server URL parameter.

For example:

https://airkey.demo.local:3002
Make sure that the port is open for incoming connections in the firewall of AirKey server.

The Virtual AirKey reader policy applies to user workstations and defines the number of AirKey card readers on the workstation.

Not Configured or Disabled
This means that the number of readers for AirKey card connection is equal to 1. Default value is Not configured.

Enabled
Parameters defined by policy are used when using AirKey cards. Specify the number of readers to connect AirKey cards to in the Reader number parameter. Default value is 3. Maximum number is 10.

Configuring AirKey Virtual Smart Card Reader via Registry

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\IndeedAirKey\Runtime]
"AirKeyEnterpriseServerUrl"=""
"ReaderInstanceCount"=dword:00000000

The AirKeyEnterpriseServerUrl parameter specifies a link and port to connect to AirKey server.
