OTP for select users

jtuckerchug · August 2022

Hello.

I manage an SMA 6510. I realize that OTP can be setup. Can it be setup for select users. Wondering this so we can make a pilot test group of users to make sure it works prior to broad deployment.

Thank you in advance.

You can simply enable One-Time-Password on selected Users and test how it works:

IMHO Group Level is not possible. At least on SMA 500v.

the only other option is to enable it on domain Level.

@jtuckerchug I assume you're talking about SMA 6210, which is a 1000 Series Appliance.

IMHO TOTP is enabled on Authentication Server Level, therefore it cannot be limited to specific Users and Groups, can't check myself right now, but I'am somewhat certain. I don't use the built-in TOTP, I rely on external Authenticaton Solutions accessed via Radius.

Off-Topic: I strongly disagree with the choice of your profile picture and something
like that should be IMHO avoided, especially in these times.
