Once MFA is enabled via Administration, users logging in for the first time will be asked to set up a secondary authentication option.
Once the user has set up their desired 2FA option, they will be asked to utilize the 2FA after every login
During the 2FA process, the user has the option to select "Do not challenge me on this device for the next 12 hours".
If "Do not challenge me..." is selected, the user can authenticate with only their username and password for the next 12 hours (without the need for the 2FA authentication)
Next time the user logins in, the "Do not challenge me..." will be automatically selected based on the users previous choice.
How to Login with SMS 2FA Set Up:
