Configure 2FA TOTP & Google Authenticator
=========================================
This how-to will show you how to setup a One-time Password 2 Factor Authentication
using OPNsense and Google's Authenticator. All services of OPNsense can be used
with this 2FA solution, with the exception of console/ssh access.

.. Note::
To use the same feature with any time based one-time password token just enter
the seed into the field in step 3 instead of creating a new seed. The seed needs
to be in base32 format.
--------------------------------------
Step 1 - Add New Authentication Server
--------------------------------------
To add a TOTP server go to **System->Access-Servers** and press **Add server** in
the top right corner. Then fill in the form as follows:
====================== =================================== ========================================
**Descriptive name** TOTP Server *Choose a server name*
**Type** Local+Timebased One Time Password *Select the TOTP server Type*
**Token length** 6 *6 for Google Authenticator*
**Time window** *Leave Empty for Google Authenticator*
**Grace period** *Leave Empty for Google Authenticator*
====================== =================================== ========================================
-------------------------------------
Step 2 - Install Google Authenticator
-------------------------------------
Go to the App Store of your platform and search for Google Authenticator.
Install using the normal procedure for your device.
---------------------------
Step 3 - Add or modify user
---------------------------
For this example we will create a new user, go to **System->Access-Users** and click
on the plus sign in the lower right corner.
Enter a **Username** and **Password** and fill in the other fields just as you would
do for any other user. Then select the **Generate new (160bit) secret** under **OTP seed**.
When done press **Save**.
-------------------------------------------------
Step 4 - Activate Authenticator for this OTP seed
-------------------------------------------------
To activate your new OTP seed on the Google Authenticator, first reopen the user
you just created by clicking on the pencil icon.

Now it will show a QR code:

.. Warning::
Be very careful with the seed or QR code as this is the only thing you need
to calculate the token. **KEEP YOUR SEED/QR CODE SAFE !**
Now open your Google Authenticator application and select the option to start the
configuration and then scan the QR code or alternatively enter the seed directly.

Step 5 - Test the token
-----------------------
For testing the user authentication, OPNsense offers a simple tester.
Go to **System->Access->Tester**
Select the Authentication server you have configured, and enter the user name.
Then enter the ***token** + **password**, remember the order
is token and then password **in the same field**.
.. Note::
Password field should be used to enter both token and your password, like:
**Password:** 123456PASSWORD
Hit the test button and if all goes well you should see *successfully authenticated*.

------------------------
Step 6 - Using the token
------------------------
To use the token in any application/service that you have configured, just open
the Google Authenticator and add the created token/key **before** your regular password.
.. Warning::
Remember, you need to enter the token **before** you password!
And the password field should be used to enter both token and your password,
like: **Password:** 123456PASSWORD
The code will change every 30 seconds.
