VPN 2FA Code

avatar

Hi ..

It's common that when connecting to a VPN connection I will have to use some sort of 2FA to gain access.

Either :
Enter my password, then get prompted for a code from the 2FA (Old RSA Token, Google Authenicator, etc etc.)
Enter my passcode with the 2FA from the system tacked onto the end
etc. etc.

What kind of mechanism's does RDM have for using a 2FA with a VPN ?

Is there a way for it to either prompt you for the password, and it prefills the known part; waiting for you to enter the 2FA.
Or allow for a 2FA challenge after you've inputted the stored password, with some sort of question before connecting.

Please advise.

BTW .. I have a CheckPoint VPN connection to add, and your documentation on the settings is non-existant.
Is there something I can refer to, to know what to put in what field ?
(There's no point asking the person providing the VPN, as they'll just say to use the VPN client as they've installed).

Hello,

All VPN's are handled differently depending of the integration that we can make if it's from a API, SDK or Command Line.
As I know, most of the VPN that we are integrated in RDM are based on Command Line. If the command line supports the 2FA, RDM should be able to support it.

Regarding the configuration of Checkpoint, what have you done for the moment?
Could you post some screenshots of the current configuration?
When you launch the VPN from RDM, do you receive an error message?

Best regards,
