Managing Mobile OTP Application for Login Authentication

A mobile OTP application is a software token application used to generate a dynamic password on a bound mobile phone. A CBH system allows you to configure mobile one-time password (OTP) verification for multifactor login verification. After mobile OTP verification is configured, you are required to enter the user password and a 6-digit mobile OTP verification code when you log in to the CBH system. For details, see Configuring Mobile OTP Login Authentication.

Currently, CBH supports built-in mobile OTP and Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) mobile OTP.

  • Built-in mobile OTP application: WeChat applet mobile OTP.
  • RADIUS mobile OTP applications: Google Authenticator and FreeOTP
  • Ensure that your CBH system and mobile phone have the same system time, accurate to seconds. Otherwise, the mobile OTP application may fail to be bound to the user account.
  • If the mobile OTP fails to be bound, change the CBH system time to be the same as the mobile phone time. After this, refresh the page to generate a new quick response (QR) code for binding.

This topic describes how to bind and unbind a mobile OTP application.
