Overview
The Message Delivery Component (MDC) is necessary to support Virtual DIGIPASS authentication. For more
information on Virtual DIGIPASS authentication, see section
The MDC interfaces with a gateway service to send a One Time Password to a User’s mobile phone. The MDC acts
as a service, accepting messages from the aXsGUARD Identifier which are then forwarded to a text message
gateway via the HTTP/HTTPS protocol. The diagram below illustrates this procedure.
Since every gateway uses different submission parameters, certain settings are required, which can be configured
through the aXsGUARD Identifier Configuration Tool. The configurations required are listed in the following section.
