Guide for configuring an ASA for two factor auth

I've searched CSC as best as I can so I appologize if this is a duplicate topic.  I have an ASA5505 v8.4(1), ASDM version 6.4(1).  According to the release notes you can setup two factor authentication in these later versions of ASA code.  What I can't find is any guide that tells you what the steps are to actually set it up.  We're testing RSA's SecureID for PCI compliance.  If anyopne has a link to a document that gives some insight into this I'd appreciate it.

David,

Two factor requires no additional configuration, i.e. you have one password based on two parts.

The ASA just works as a relay, it forwards the username/pass to AAA server which validates if it's OK (in a typical scenario).

Now double authentication is something that might need a bit more config - i.e. you have to provide two passwords for two different machanisms.

Marcin.
