Cisco AnyConnect Client SMS MFA

Hello Everyone,

 

I am setting up Cisco AnyConnect with our MX250. For the authentication and MFA I am using radius server.  I could login to Cisco AnyConnect using MFA App and Calling feature but I can't connect to AnyConnect using SMS feature. On my phone I receive txt but on anyconnect client I don't get a pop-up to enter the passcode. 

 

does anyone know if SMS authentication is supported?

Get in contact with suport to have them prolong the MFA timeout. Afterwards, everything should be fine.

I already extended MFA timeout to 180 seconds on MX250. 

 

  • Microsoft Authenticator app ( works)
  • Voice Call ( works )
  • SMS  I receive text message on my phone but CiscoAnyConnect Client on Meraki doesn't pop-up box to enter the passcode. On the CiscoAnyConnect client you get login error.

It doesn't support secondary authentication in that way on MX when using RADIUS.

 

It will work if you change to using SAML authentication.
