Two factor authentication for CUCM admin login / SAML

[Hamad ghathber]

Hello everyone

We have been asked to activate two factor authentication for all systems. We could apply it to all routers/SW/FW.

But still it wasn't clear for UC systems.

How to implement two factor authentication for CUCM?

What is SAML?

Thanks in advance

Hi JB

Thanks for your reply.

You are saying if we apply SAML , we will use two factor authentication to be able to login to CUCM as an Administrator.

Hi Hamad,

Exactly and SAML is the only two factor authentication supported by UC application at this point.
