Configure NetMotion Mobility

Configure NetMotion mobility to use the Okta RADIUS Server Agent using the Okta Integration Network (OIN) NetMotion Moblity (RADIUS) app.

Before you begin

Meet the following network connectivity requirements before you install the Okta RADIUS agent:

Source Destination Port/Protocol Description
Okta RADIUS Agent Okta Identity Cloud TCP/443

HTTP

Configuration and authentication traffic.
Client Gateway Okta RADIUS Agent UDP/1812 RADIUS (Default, you can change this when you install and configure the RADIUS app) RADIUS traffic between the gateway (client) and the RADIUS agent (server).

Limitations

Supported Factors

The size of the challenge message can be too large for the RADIUS prompt if you let users enroll too many authenticators. Okta recommends that you enroll no more than eight authenticators at a given time.

Okta supports the following authenticators for RADIUS apps:

MFA Authenticator

Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) Extensible Authentication Protocol - Generic Token Card (EAP-GTC) Extensible Authentication Protocol - Tunneled Transport Layer Security (EAP-TTLS)*
Duo (Push, SMS, and Passcode only) Supported Supported Duo passcode only.

Email

Supported

Supported

Supported when the string "EMAIL" is initially sent. Refer to associated note.

RADIUS doesn't support inline enrollment with Email. When using inline enrollment, either disable Email or specify Password reset in Email settings.

Google authenticator

Supported Supported Supported, as long as challenge is avoided. For example MFA only or "Password, passcode".

Okta Verify (TOTP and PUSH)

Supported

(for one device only)

Supported

(for one device only)

Supported as long as challenge is avoided.

(for one device only)

For example: MFA-only or "Password, MFA" for TOTP. Push can work with primary authentication with MFA as the push challenge is sent out-of-band.

Okta Verify (number challenge)

Not supported

Not supported

Not supported

Security Question

Supported (Password and MFA only) Supported (Password + MFA only). Not supported

Phone (SMS and Voice call)

Supported Supported Supported when the string "CALL" is sent. Refer to associated note.

YubiKey OTP

Supported Supported Supported - as long as challenge is avoided. For example MFA only or "Password, passcode".

* RADIUS supports three authentication methods:

  • Password + MFA: Primary authentication using password, then the user is prompted to select factors to complete the authentication.
  • MFA Only: Instead of password, users enter either a one-time passcode (OTP), or one of EMAIL, SMS, CALL, PUSH (case insensitive).
  • Password and Passcode: Password entered immediately followed by a passcode in a request. Must be in the same request, for example: Abcd1234,879890" or "Abcd1234,SmS".

Protocols support the following authentication methods:

Protocol Supports
PAP Password and MFA, MFA, "Password and passcode".
EAP-TTLS MFA only, "Password and passcode".
EAP-GTC Password and MFA, MFA only, "Password and passcode".
