ZyWALL 5 Internet Security Appliance
The ZyWALL only has to store the certificates of the certification authorities that you decide
to trust, no matter how many devices you need to authenticate.
Key distribution is simple and very secure since you can freely distribute public keys and you
never need to transmit private keys.

Until public-key infrastructure becomes more mature, it may not be available in some areas. You can
have the ZyWALL act as a certification authority and sign its own certificates.
