I concur with Tim, having a SecurID server on the DMZ is not a good idea.
If you need to protect an external server, you may not be able to proxy
SecurID packets, you may need to tunnel them.  Radius you may be able to
proxy.

The SecurID servers and various other critical infrastructure machines
should be in a protected environment since they will be subject to attack,
both denial of service and subverting the security types.

You can...the question is: Would you want to? I wouldn't recommend that you
put authentication servers in your DMZ, but rather, put them behind your
firewall.

But if you have to put them in the DMZ (Obviously, I don't know all of your
requirements), it can be done with FW-1.

Hi All,
        Please help me in solving this issue.
Can we place the Secure ID server
in DMZ? Firewall used is Checkpoint Firewall-1.
Do we need any other components for connectivty?
Please let me know the configuration details.

Thanks & Regds.,
Babu
