Secure Connect Gateway 5.x — Virtual Edition User's Guide

PDF

Enable two-factor authentication

Prerequisites

  • RSA must be installed on a system that is accessible by secure connect gateway.
  • RSA secure tokens must be assigned to each user.
  • RSA SecurID Token application must be installed on your system.

About this task

Two-factor authentication helps reduce security risks and provide secure access to secure connect gateway. When two-factor authentication is enabled, the RSA passcode from the RSA SecurID Token application must be entered when you log into secure connect gateway.

Steps

  1. Go to Settings > Environment configuration > Gateway configuration > Two-factor authentication.
  2. Select Enable two-factor authentication.
  3. Enter the hostname and port from the RSA SecurID portal. The URL syntax for the RSA SecurID portal is https://<rsa-am-server-hostname>:<port>/mfa/v1 1.
    The hostname is the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the RSA server. The default port is 5555. If the port is changed, to retrieve port information, go to Setup > System settings > RSA Secur ID > Authentication API on the RSA Authentication Manager (AM) server.
  4. Upload the RSA AM certificate and test the connection.
    The acceptable formats for the certificate are .pem or .p7b.
    If you do not have the certificate, contact your RSA server administrator to get the certificate or certificate chain.
  5. Enter RSA SecurID client ID, RSA SecurID access key, and click Apply.

    To retrieve the RSA SecurID from the RSA server, go to Access > Authentication Agents > Manage Existing.

    To retrieve the RSA access key from the RSA server, go to Setup > System settings > RSA Secur ID > Authentication API .
    NOTE:Secure connect gateway does not validate the RSA SecurID client ID. Ensure that you enter the correct RSA SecurID client ID.
