OneSpan Authentication Server uses several different ports to communicate (see Table: Incoming ports used by OneSpan Authentication Server and Table: Outgoing ports used by OneSpan Authentication Server). If these are blocked by a firewall, some features will not work correctly.
Before installing OneSpan Authentication Server, ensure that these ports are open and not in use. The Installation Wizard will issue a warning and halt the configuration process if any of these ports are unavailable.
We recommend using a software firewall on OneSpan Authentication Server and segmenting the OneSpan Authentication Server network with a hardware firewall.
