Your customer upgraded recently to version 12.2 to allow the Linux team to use the new MFA caching feature. The PSM for SSH was installed with default configuration settings. After setting the Authentication to SSH key and enabling MFA Caching from the PVWA interface, the Linux Team cannot connect successfully using the new MFA caching feature.
What is the most probable cause?

I doubt it's C, passphrase policies shouldn't affect MFA caching.

A is definitely not the problem, OpenSSH is usually updated.

Wait, is it true that MFA caching can't work with default settings? That's surprising!

Totally agree, that seems like the most likely issue.

I think it's B, the MFACaching parameter needs to be set to True.

I feel like a passphrase policy might not be directly related to MFA caching, but I could be wrong. It’s hard to remember all the details!

I’m a bit confused about the OpenSSH version requirement. Wasn’t there something about needing 7.8 or higher for MFA caching to work?

I think I saw a practice question about default settings and MFA caching not working, so maybe option D could be the issue here.

I remember something about the MFACaching parameter needing to be set to True, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only thing to check.

This seems straightforward. The question states that the PSM for SSH was installed with default configuration settings, so I'm guessing the answer is that MFA caching is not supported in the default setup.

Okay, let's see here. The Linux team can't connect successfully using the new MFA caching feature, so it's likely a configuration issue. I'll need to pay close attention to the options mentioned in the answer choices.

Hmm, the question mentions a recent upgrade to version 12.2, so I'm guessing the issue is related to that. I'll focus on understanding the new MFA caching feature and how it interacts with the default PSM settings.

This seems like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully review the details about the MFA caching feature and the default PSM for SSH configuration.

I'm stumped. Maybe I should have read the PSM for SSH documentation more carefully before the exam.

Haha, the Linux team better brush up on their SSH configuration skills before trying out the new MFA caching feature!

I'm going to go with C. Adding a passphrase policy could be the solution since the question doesn't mention anything about that.

D) MFA caching is not supported when the PSM for SSH is deployed with default settings.

D seems like the right answer to me. The question mentions the PSM for SSH was installed with default settings, and the prompt says the MFA caching feature is not working, so it's probably not supported in the default configuration.

C) A passphrase policy must be added.

Hmm, I think the answer is B. The MFACaching parameter in the psmpparms file must be set to True for the MFA caching feature to work.
FE
Felix

Yes, that's correct. Without that setting, the MFA caching feature won't work as expected.

I agree, the MFACaching parameter in the psmpparms file needs to be set to True.
SH

But doesn't MFA caching require the MFACaching parameter to be set to True?
JE

I disagree, I believe it could be option B.

I think the most probable cause is option D.
