Configure E-mail for On-Demand Tokencode DeliveryConfigure E-mail for On-Demand Tokencode Delivery
You can configure a deployment to send on-demand tokencodes to a user’s e-mail address. First you must configure the e-mail server connection for each instance.
Before you begin
-
Confirm that you have the following information:
-
Configure a destination e-mail address for each user.
-
Use an e-mail address other than the one for which on-demand authentication enables access. For example, make the user’s personal e-mail address the destination when the user needs the tokencode to access his or her e-mail account at work.
-
Configure the SMTP Mail Service. You must do this for each instance in your deployment.
-
Ensure that RSA Authentication Manager can access the database attribute where you store users’ e-mail addresses.For more information, see Identity Attribute Definitions for On-Demand Tokencode Delivery by E-Mail.
