    Description

    The Time-Based One Time Password is a multi-factor authentication scheme that enabled third party integration to generate secure time-based OTP via third party authentication Apps such as Google authenticator, Microsoft authenticator, Duo, Free-OTP, etc.

    In this article, we will see how to configure TOTP in SMA 100 series in a domain level and how to use Google Authenticator App and Microsoft authenticator App to bind and get TOTP. TOTP is introduced in SMA 100 series starting from firmware 9.0.0.0-9sv.

    Cause

    TOTP is an alternative to traditional two-factor authentication methods. TOTP passwords keep on changing and are valid for only short window in time, because of which TOTP is considered more secure OTP solution.

    Resolution

    NOTE: In-order to use TOTP, please make sure the firmware on appliance is 9.0 or above.

    TIP: For configuration on User Discretion level to have both Email OTP and TOTP Mobile App for user, Click here

    Configuration on SMA appliance:

    1. Navigate to Portals |Domains. Add / Edit an existing domain and enable One-Time Passwords. Select Use Mobile App.

      NOTE: OTP cannot be enabled for default LocalDomain. Please create new domain to have OTP / TOTP enabled.

    2. Click Accept.

    3. Now, all users who are part of this domain will be enforced to enter TOTP.

    7. Once logged in to portal, user have options to unbind the App and he can bind new one upon next login. They can also generate backup codes which can be used when they do not have access to their binded App to generate TOTP. Each backup code can be used only once and they do not expire. User must store them in a safe place.
