Configure Citrix ADC using CensorNet MFA authentication
Prerequisites
SMS PASSCODE is re-branded as CensorNet MFA. You can configure the Citrix ADC (formerly NetScaler) to use a One
Time Passcode/Password (OTP) in the form of a personal identification number (PIN) or passcode. To obtain this one-time
password, you must install CensorNet app on your mobile. After you enter the passcode or PIN, the authentication server
invalidates the one-time password. You cannot enter the same PIN or password again. For more information about configuring
one-time passcode, see the Citrix documentation.
Prerequisites
● Citrix ADC (formerly NetScaler) v12.0 and later is installed on your client.
● SMS PASSCODE v9.0 SP1 or later is installed and configured in your network. You can download the SMS PASSCODE v9.0
file from download.smspasscode.com/public/6260/SmsPasscode-900sp1.
● Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) authentication policy is configured and bind to the Citrix ADC server.
● CensorNet app is installed and configured on your mobile device.
About this task
To use the one-time passcode on ThinOS, do the following:
Steps
1. Log in to ThinOS and connect to the ADC URL.
2. Enter your credentials, and press Enter.
The PASSCODE dialog box is displayed. You will receive a push notification from the CensorNet App on your phone with the
code.
3. Click OK.
If the authentication is successful, you are logged into the Citrix session.
