ZyWALL OTP Products Components

ZyWALL OTP, which includes the ZyWALL OTP Token and SafeWord 2008, provides secure verification of

identity to remote Virtual Private Network (VPN) and Local Area Network (LAN) users.

SafeWord product installation always includes:

SafeWord Core Server

Management console (AD or SafeWord Management Console)

Agents or SafeWord RADIUS Server

SafeWord Core Server

The SafeWord Core Server consists of 3 main components:

Database server (MySQL) – installed by default. The SafeWord database serves as the repository for

token records independent of the management mode. It stores the Token's serial numbers and Token

(seed) used to generating OTP. The database server listens on port 5010 by default and only the

Administration service and Authentication engines can query it directly.

Administration server – runs administration services and performs tasks initiated by administrators

or users. Updates the SafeWord database and synchronizes SafeWord database data in configurations

with MMC console and User Center. Also performs replication of changes between peers. It is listening

on port 5040 by default.

Authentication server (AAA) – runs the authentication engine that verifies that the passcode supplied

with an access request is correct for the token assigned to a specific user. It is listening on port 5031

by default.
