Configure Emergency Access for ProvisioningConfigure Emergency Access for Provisioning
Before a user can troubleshoot a token and get emergency access tokencodes through the Self-Service Console, you must configure emergency access for provisioning.
The emergency access tokencodes are the following:
-
Temporary Fixed Tokencode (TFT). A temporary tokencode that is combined with the user’s PIN to create a passcode. The user can use this tokencode more than once. You can configure the expiration date and other temporary fixed tokencode attributes.
-
One Time Tokencodes (OTT). A set of tokencodes, each of which can be used only once, and is used with the user’s PIN to create a passcode. You can specify how many tokencodes are in the set.
-
On-Demand Authentication (SMS-based generation). A service that allows users to request on-demand tokencodes delivered by text message or e-mail, instead of tokens. You configure the on-demand tokencode service for requests using the Security Console. Users must be enabled to receive on-demand tokencodes before they can request them.
