When a user needs to authenticate, the RSA Authentication Manager sends a unique token code and a mobile phone number to LOX24, which sends the code via SMS to the user’s mobile phone. The user then enters the code in the agent’s input prompt and the authentication is complete. The configuration is simple and includes setting up token code delivery via SMS, SMS provider configuration, and SMS HTTP configuration.
