You can use multi-factor authentication to increase the security in your system.

Pre-requisites
  • The domain controller for the EcoStruxure Building Operation domain must be online.

  • Multi-factor authenticator can only be used over https.

  • The time on the EcoStruxure Building Operation server must be synchronized with the device that runs the authenticator. However, the device and the EcoStruxure Building Operation server can be in different time zones.

Supported authentication apps

The authenticator app must support RFC6238 TOTP (Time-Based One-Time Password).

Verified authenticator apps are:

  • Google Authenticator

  • Microsoft Authenticator

Supported clients

Multi-factor authentication is supported by:

  • WorkStation

  • WebStation

Do not use multi-factor authentication on the local admin account on a field server. The local admin account is used in the communication with Device Administrator. Device Administrator does not support multi-factor authentication and the communication will fail.

User group level

Multi-factor authentication is set on a user group level.
