Administrator Account Details

Before configuring multifactor authentication for administrator accounts, verify that each administrator account has an email address. Otherwise, EFT will not be able to email a passcode to the administrator to log in. Administrators configured for MFA via SMS without a defined mobile number will default to email address.

To add an email address or phone number to an administrator account

  1. In the administration interface, connect to EFT and click the Server tab.

  2. On the Server tab, click the Server node you want to configure, then click the Administration tab.

  3. Click any administrator account name (except Local computer\administrators), and then click Account Details. The Account Details dialog box appears.

  4. Complete the fields in the dialog box:

    • Username - Name used for the account

    • Full name - First and last name of the user

    • Description - Type or purpose of administrator account

    • Email - Email address of administrator

    • Phone - Phone number of administrator

    • Comments - Other details you might want to add

  5. Click OK, then click Apply to save changes.
