Enable Two Factor Authentication
By default, for all users “Two Factor Authentication” option is set to False. User can enable “Two Factor Authentication” setting from Change Password screen.
Click on “Change Password” from menu bar
“Reset Password” page is opened. And we can see “Use 2-Factor Authentication” option in this page. By default “Use 2-Factor Authentication” option is false.
When “Use 2-Factor Authentication” option is checked, a Register form is visible.
Enter valid Country Code, Phone number and email address which details are used for Two Factor Authentication registration. Then click on “Register”.
(For verification, Verification code will be sent to entered phone number. And a message will be displayed like “Verification code has been sent to your phone number. Please enter verification code and click on verify button.”)
For verification, a button and box will be visible.
Enter verification code which is sent to the phone number which was entered in the box and click on “Verify” for verification. If the verification code is valid, the user will be registered with “Two Factor Authentication” successfully and give a message such as “User registered with Authy successfully.” otherwise User will not be registered with “Two Factor Authentication” and give a message such as “Verification code is incorrect”.
A user can be registered with Authy only once. After Authy Registration, the user can not access “Use 2-Factor Authentication” option again (“Use 2-Factor Authentication” option is disabled after registration).
When Authy registered user logs into the eQuip Application, the “Verify Token” window will be opened.
Generally, a user will have to enter the verification code which is shown in the user's Authy App and then must click on “Verify”.
If the user clicks to “Text me a code”, a verification code will be sent via Text message to the user’s phone number which is used for Authy Registration. The user will have to enter that verification code which was sent to the Authy Application
