RSA SecurID Access SMS Token Code MFA Authentication for a Cisco ASA and Cisco Anyconnect

I am showcasing securing a Cisco ASA and Cisco Anyconnect with SMS Token Code Authentication.

✦ SMS Token Code is a six-digit code that RSA SecurID Access sends to the user's phone in an SMS message when the user attempts to access Cisco ASA via the Anyconnect client. 

✦ The token code, which is verified by the RSA SecurID Access Cloud Authentication Service, is time-based and must be used before it expires. If it expires or the user does not receive it, the user can click Resend Tokencode.

✦ When planning your available authentication methods, consider making SMS Tokencode available for emergency access when the user cannot use other methods, for example, when the user loses the RSA SecurID Token or cannot locate the device used to register the RSA SecurID Authenticate app.

✦ Users can use SMS Tokencode if these criteria are met:

• RSA has enabled this feature for your company.
• Users' required identity source information is synchronized with the Cloud Authentication Service (similar to other authentication methods).
• A valid mobile phone number is stored for the user in the Cloud Authentication Service. The phone number can be synchronized from the LDAP directory server or entered manually by the administrator.
