1. Issuing a Multi-Factor Authentication Certificate

To allow the use of time-based one-time password (TOTP) authentication, use the mfamgt server command to issue a Multi-Factor Authentication Certificate for the users' Notes certifier.

Before you begin

Make sure your ID vault server runs Domino 12 and the ID vault database is upgraded to the Domino 12 idvault.ntf template design.

Procedure

  1. At the console of a vault server, issue the following command:
    mfamgmt create trustcert <Notes DN to allow>  <certifier ID file>  <certifier password> 
    For example:
    mfamgmt create trustcert "*/O=mfatest1" cert.id sr$1ulv7bYT
    Note:
    • Make sure the certifier ID is in the Domino data directory.
    • If you use the Domino Administrator to issue the command, you can use the Password Commands option to display a box in which to enter the password, which masks the characters in the password with asterisks. For more information, see Sending commands from the Domino Administrator console.
  2. Replicate the Domino directory changes to all servers in the domain.
  3. Open the Domino directory on any server in the domain, select the Certificates view, and verify that you see a Multi-Factor Authentication Certificate similar to the following one: Example Multi-Factor Authentication Certificate for /mfatest1
  4. Issue the show idvault command and verify that output lists the MFA trust for the correct organization, as shown in bold in the following example:
    > show idvault
