Solution
Your user name, unit ID and password all need to be
provisioned in PremierOne
PremierOne needs to be linked to an RSA account
specifying a token to be used with the Two-Factor
passcode.
The radios caches the user name, unit ID and or
Single Factor password in the codeplug, this allows
the radio to automatically log in to use Single Factor
authentication upon power up or mode change. The
Two-Factor passcode is not stored in the codeplug.
You can upgrade the Single Factor session to a Two-
Factor session by entering the Two-Factor passcode
only. After an interruption (for example mode change,
DSR switch over, power loss), the radio is capable of
restoring the active session in its current state as long
as the session is active in the server.

Note: Power loss and power down are different
activities, power down occurs when the user
intentionally powers off the radio, power loss is when
the battery dies or is removed from the unit.

Two-Factor Authentication

Two-Factor Authentication is an extension of existing
ARS and TMS operation. This feature allows you to
authenticate yourself with a username, unit ID,
password and passcode.
The purpose of this feature is to allow the sender of a
text message to address a specific user of the radio,
so the message is delivered to the user, not to the
radio which may have any user using it at the time.
Secondly, this feature supports query authentication
requirements so the query service knows which user
originated a query.
You can still send text messages without logging in
as a user. The user login feature only enables the
recipient of your message to identify you as the
sender by assigning a username to your message.
Note: A predefined username that is set more than
the maximum allowed characters is an invalid name.
