Hardware Requirements

FireID - the Universal Personal Authenticator has been developed to provide secure solutions for every company - from the smallest to the largest. The solution is extremely flexible and highly scalable.

The solution is offered at a fixed cost based on user numbers. Pricing is based on numbers of user tokens deployed and utilised. Unlimited installations of the FireID server software are allowed. E-mail and telephonic technical support are provided.

The FireID server based solution is hosted internally by our clients using their own infrastructure.

FireID makes use of existing customer infrastructure and integrates seamlessly with your client database(s) using either Radius or SOAP calls. The FireID Authentication server is therefore a fairly standard machine with the following specifications:

Production environment

• A dedicated computer
• 1 GHz processor (Core2 processor recommended)
  • Both 32 and 64 bit chips are supported
• 1GB RAM (2GB recommended)
• 4GB disk space (8GB recommended)
• Network access via Ethernet with DHCP and DNS integration
  • Realtek- or Intel-based cards are recommended
  • Atheros-based cards are not supported
• Always-on internet connectivity via network card
  • Proxies are supported if required
• CD or DVD ROM drive
  • Only required during installation

In a testing or low-usage evaluation environment the memory requirement can be lowered to 256MB.

For a virtualized environment
