Purpose
In cirital environments, having users to authenticate to use OS4X Webaccess is often required to support additional means of identification. OS4X Webaccess multi-factor authentication is a functionality to support this requirement. Authenticated users then must:
- provide a valid username and password
- must have access to their user email inbox, where a dynamically created token is sent to
Configuration
OS4X Webaccess MFA contains of several configuration parameters.
Global configuration
The global configuration is located in "Configuration" -> "OS4X Enterprise" -> "Webaccess" -> "Multi-factor user authentication".
- Multi-factor authentication mail template: A mail text template (which is automatically created for updated OS4X installations) containing HTML code for the email. The variable "
$MFA_TOKEN
" will be replaced during template rendering. - Mail subject: Subject of the sent email to the user, encoded as UTF-8 mail subject (so special characters can be added here as well). If unconfigured or empty, the subject text "OS4X 2FA" is being used.
- Mail sender address: Sender of the email, given in the mail header. If unconfigured, the value "OS4X <os4x>" is used.
- Sendmail command: command which is being executed for emailing. If unconfigured, the system's default "sendmail" command is used.
