IPsec Two Factor authentication for Avaya VPN Gateway
Release 9.0 adds a two factor authentication method for authentication between servers and
clients. When assigning authentication servers, you have the option to specify a second
authentication server to use after the first one succeeds.
IPsec Two Factor authentication adds more robust security by using client certificate
authentication as first factor to represent "what user-has" and using other authentication
methods as second factor, "what user-knows".
Configuring a new certificate authentication server automatically supports IPsec Two Factor
authentication. IPsec Two Factor authentication supports only certificate authentication as
primary servers and local, RADIUS or LDAP as secondary servers.
IPsec Two Factor authentication is added to the User Authentication methods list, see
Authentication
